Yeah matt where is this fabled ruzzbot?

Well, I haven't started

Haven't been able to print out the Russ templates (as a base for the tracks/hatches)

Ok I Think I may enter this competition but I have 2 questions.
1. Are floating non-submersible ships acceptable?
2. If they are ok where would they be put?
I plan on making one larger (30 inches long) ship and 2-3 smaller (<10 inches long) ships.

I am getting vissions of orky Matrix style flying boats from that last post...... (Nevahhh Kenezzarr) I might have to build that myself............ It's orks anything goes as far as I know there are plenty of "other" catagories.

And the stompa build is finished. Now it's just a matter of getting it painted...


First off, a fly-around of the model:













And showing off the legs, of which I'm quite proud (and yes, I know this sounds wrong ):





Note that the paint pot lid supporting the foot is there because the box I put the stompa on to photograph was all bent on top. He can stand perfectly on a flat surface. No tipping issues, becasue the flat foot is filled with a mix of sand and PVA

A scale shot with a (very lonely) marine:



And a mini's eye-view which, IMO, is a supa-cool shot:



And the inside of the head, which is pretty crowded:





Enjoy!

nice work CommissarKhaine, do you have any leftover bits you'd like to share?

There are no leftover bits, only bitz for my next conversion

Shoot, it was worth a shot. And I know what you mean.

Not to mention that sending them to the states might be a tad expensive

Khaine, that stompa looks AMAZING! great work. Love the cockpit details

Yes, it's aceptable, I'll probably have to make a new catagory for it, though....

Good luck painting all the details

^lol

?? why 'lol'?^

because its going to take a million years to get all of those little details in!!!!

He doesn't have that long, there's only about 8 months left!

Good luck painting all the details

Most of the detail (all the stuff inside the cockpit, for example) is removable . For those wondering: both arms, the bomb lift, the bomb launcha, the lookout turret, the roof of the head, and all the krew + panels are removable, meaning 8 months might be enough to get it painted

Wow, great work on that. Take your time getting to every little spot: this could be a masterpiece. Can't wait to see what other people churn out.

Btw, I've just updated my blog with progress on the fighta. Have a look (link in sig)

Can I join the competition in the buggy category? I just started working on one within the last week. I've also had some ideas floating around about some submersibles....though I suppose they would be more accurately described as subterranean. Would that count as submersible?

Sure, awesomesauce, your second on my list of things to do for this thread

I've (sort of) made a (terrible) start on the RuzzBot....
