I need to check up on the one man attack subs I was bringing. Not heard anything for a bit....

Also need to finish the conversions for the Atlantean Mantariders.
So many projects..... so little time.......

LOL @ the magnets.... wonderful scenery, and brilliant ideas! =)

Now, now, mustn't be judgmental. Mr. Fu had to scrimp a bit, and the use of school magnets is QUITE cost effective.  ;)

"I am calling it a Barracuda. (It is supposed to look like one, believe it or not Grin)" Not to worry, chap, as I saw it instantly. However, no matter the species, terror fish, it is!

Can only echo Malamute's 'Delightful'!

I'm lost in space, and delight 'nefs come in as my second delight, but this is definitely an area I've been tempted for some time...

Great stuff Colin! Love the sub! I can't wait to blow it out of the water!! ;) ;)

My only problem with our board?....... Do you think it looks underwatery enough? I'm worried when we finish it it just looks like a desert board with floating ships. I can't think of anything else we could do to solve the problem though..... ??? ???

Well we tried out our first trial run of the rules and board today.










Rules seemed to work out quite well.
And my sub won :D

Still a lot of work to do to get it ready but we are getting there.

I will post the rules we used in the sticky thread for the game.

Splendid stuff  8) :-*

What sort of height are the subs mounted at?

Andy, I'll get your filigree off to you mid week next week  :)

Cheers James!

My sub is slightly bigger than Colins, but I've just used a standard GW flying base stand. I dare say height of your own sub won't matter that much.

I posted up a wee update in the 'Battle of the Aquanauts' sticky....



Just trying to get some feedback if I'm doing the right thing...

That's some prime quality painting right there. Black, rust, bronze, copper, verdigris and white, right?
