expecting to see it!

Since I understand that you are in the antipodes from me, I suggest you to use Eureka's figures from Pax Limpopo crew for the rattler or the thunderer, you may save some conversion. (tip: if you do not need the complete unit you may ask nicely to eureka and they can give you spare crew figures)

Incredibly awesome !
Very nice thought and execution.


I understand that the painting is still on. A small suggestion Try to immitate copper on the copper cables. This will end to an extra striking effect. (BTW copper is not corroded -almost- and thus no need for protective paint). But as I judge from your painting and scratchbuilt abilities you do not need any advise from me!

The generator looks fantastic, as usual.

It must suck being so good at kitbashing. I wish I sucked half as bad as you.

If you get what I mean.

Seriously, though, the addition of the generator wagon was a great idea. I think it helps with the suspension of disbelief that goes to make VSF toys seem more realistic. You sir, are becoming a Known Figure in the realm of VSF Gaming. Her Majesty (God Bless Her) would most definitely be Amused.

Gentlemen, it is an honour to be held in such high regard. I only hope I can continue doing work that pleases!

I now have designs for seven new technological monstrosities of various sizes and plans for a project that will put Gargantua, Leadwood and eveything else so far to shame!

There. I've said it. Have to do it now...

Needless to say, it may take some time...
