I started the largest and most ambitious project so far. I hope I'll finish it, which is not at all certain (my drawers are full of infinite models)

DIY pocket orks battleship. This is not a gaming model, but rather diorama or LoS blocker. Planned dimensiones: lenght - 50 cm, hight - 50 cm, widht - 40 cm. I've started a month ago and estimate it will take me about six months.

Like all my other models, it's a great improvisation (I do not make plans and schemes, just take a parts and glue and... done!)
Hull was made from styrofoam, covered with cardboard and HIPS. Towers made mainly from HIPS. Nothing is finished yet

I had to put together elements I've made so far (temporarily to check folding of individual parts). And by the way I took a picture.

I've done main engine. It's a CPU fan, HIPS, cardboard and part of Tamiya M3 Lee tank's hull. I also used part of CDROM drive as a connector, thanks to which the motor can rotate.
I also added another floor to quarterdeck.

This will make an amazing centerpiece! The hulking size of it combined with the sheer orkiness of it blows me away. Keep up the excellent work

That orky Jolly Roger turned out great! And I really like the idea of using an Easter egg for a large bomb, it looks great, I'll have to try that.
