Could just colour it a bright translucent green or red. Sort of water, but isn't.

Thank you Vik, oh Holy Pimp'er of threads!!!

speaking of...

another truly intersting competition is on it´s way to grandeur

Nerdfest09's 'Golden Bathtub' squad leader painting competition!

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/477119.page#4780554


go and join there if you still have capabilities!

One I can jump into easily since I'm painting troops mostly anyway and have one suitable for it leftover.

hehe^^ whatever the excuse... rise to the occasion^^

So much work to do.

Just combine them all into one glorious project.

that is sounding like an obituary...

Soon, I see Vik's full of his tanks/men, and decorative items for a mini city.

Dave has a mini city already built or partially built, I imagine if he laid all his terrain out that he could snap a pic that would look like a movie set.

Vik's airship is almost a movie set unto itself!(I can see a not Indiana Jones using the whip to keep from falling off it)

There's something he can do; a bar for the Rivettos.

oh shaso... now you have set me up... somehow my love for henry jones Jr. now has come to a new step... i think i need a mini of him... darn...

Make a Rivetto one or perhaps Ork with a gretchin for the kid that was with him that one time?

an orky jones... now that is something the universe surley hasn´t seen before...

Like the idea for the statue vik

And now.......

ah... yeah now to something....new^^

progress!














the wire i currently use as a water flow i hopefully can substitute with clear fishing line soon...

the base as seen above is the base for the upcoming rivetto... he is currently in the making still... possibly tomorrow some new pics on this one...the plan is... to give Mr.Merlin a fountain terrain piece that he later on might change with a new statue of his own design... so the base and the rivetto mini wont be attched permanently to the fountains plinth...
the surface of the wall will have to be plated and then riveting is happening...then i will fill the fountains "bath" with a mixture of sand and PVA to get the right level... set the plinth inside and arange the water trickle and when the robot is finally build painting happens...


thanks for watching

Niice Vik!

OK I am interested to see this develop, but to be honest at the moment it looks like an upside down cup with wires inside a cardboard bowl, if thats your look its brilliant LOL

Early stages can be misleading

Catching up. The fountain is off to a good start, looking forward to seeing how it ends up.

lol... hopefully it wont end up in the garbage bin

thanks mates... much more will happen... if i don´t get the clear fishing line then everything will be just painted on... and later on made look watery...we´ll see what comes first...

I get that all the time with my orks. "it looks like a bunch of trash?..." "It is, but it will be a tank!"

Do you have shares in Christmas wrapping paper dude?

ah... but with orks... that is a sort of quality feature
