thank you Automatically Appended Next Post: managed to get the base of filler added for sea which when painted will hopefully give illusion of movement

Very nice texture on the pillars, and the filler job for the waves seems to work well. Are you going to use a resin water effect?

thank you, it was a nightmare to undercoat, everytime I went back to it I found another unpainted crevice but pleased with it as didn't want it to be too blue and wanted a more hostile sea/enviroment

That gloss coat really brings it out.

thanks and your right, they did look like rocks, hoping the medium will give some more movement too it, also going try and make some sort of alien seaweed on the pillars,

Thats insanely cool... If I may suggest something though, maybe add some shacks, lean-tos or, if that doesnt work with your vision, maybe a shrine or something? Currently there doesnt really seem to be anything to allow people to inspect the site, to work there or anything... and actually, an access point could be useful as well. A pier, a bridge/pipeline leading to the mainland, that kind of stuff? Unless its only meant to be accessible by air, ofc.

hi, thanks and for comments, once the main structure done I will be adding details like you suggest also there is going to be a 2nd board along side it with a pipeline and dock also going to do some kind of imperial container/tanker ship

Yeah, I thought you might do something like that (well, the main structure part of your post, anyway. ). Just wanted to mention it in case you hadnt thought about it, since the time to think about this kind of thing is approaching pretty quickly.
Should be awesome when its done!
(hell, its already awesome... I think I need a better word for it... <.< )

This is all looking so damn good.
I do suggest however adding in a couple ramps between the main levels as this would add some more space for gaming utility wise.
Also I think adding some other things to the pump (pipes, a control unit) should make it stand out more

with that container you released your true riveteer potential! indeed! more of this and the league will have you body and soul
actually... i might have to steal that design...i like this elongated hex shape...is it hollow inside or did you use something as a shape "holder" ?
