I have been troubled by the horse, I really think he needs the clockwork steed from the Empire Engineer.
A long-term project will definately be a land-version of the Monitor
Oh no..now I've gone and done it again!..I put a brisket in the oven low and slow..now i'm in for 6 hours of smell torture!!

THe shrooms are great! I meant to steal the idea for a Munda fungus garden, And the sludge pool (with glue rivets) is badass- I really liked the ladder!

Dave! These guys are awesome!!!! Yeah, the guns are a bit big for them, so I guess they are not to scale with all ranges of minis, but you did a great job of making it work! The rider looks sweet! I love the monicle!
Long weekend so far, and not much time for hobby over here. But I did work last night doing airbrush tattoos at a High School graduating senior's night. 9 PM to 1 AM. So tired right now! 
Anyway, I am hoping to get some sculpting done today, but I'm not holding my breath. [/rant]
Again, really looking good Dave!
See you all tomorrow!

That sounds interesting the iron ship, is that like the one in that film Sahara about the missing civil war gold currency
I have heard about these before and seen a great scratch build ( I think ) model in a magazine many years ago 1/35 scale mind.
Will look forward to this taking shape   as for the horses have you considered a few simple conversions of legs withe cogs and maybe half the steeds body maybe
