I highly approve.  Were you local, I would have to crush your imperial designs, but alas, this is not to be.
You, sir, are not allowed to attempt a takeover of the solar system until your octopus sobers up.

Thanks gents.
Froggy, if you ever visit the island, you're more than welcome to try to crush the International Sonicator Gun and it's disparate crew.  :D

More pics, with Kemal who kindly offered to pose to give scale. Kemal is a Foundry Crimean War model.



The tracks are HO scale, but in this context I'm using them as narrow gauge mine cart tracks. I'd like to claim the rust effect on the tracks is my work, but it's the real thing!

Wonderful creation mate!

Tender from Airfix Rocket?

Which has a special relevance for me as I live in Stockton - the starting point for its service to Darlington in 1825.
Well done, that man!  8)
