Thx, Chick, but.... you were already in my Afriborian campaign (remember the Chick'n-look-wizard...):

Awesome!!!!!!

Again I am yellow with envy. You have a nice bundle of toys to play!

That's freakin' awesome, I don't really know what else to say...

How about, what have you used for the base? Surely it's difficult to keep upright?

Truly Amazing!

Will come and see the thing for myself at Crisis.

Nice concept Rudi.

The base looks like part of a toy gun - maybe a water pistol?

It is a squirt gun upside down....man we gamers are a twisted lot

Not really; as you can see in the pics, the base is rather small. When visiting junk shops I keep looking out for cheap second hand candlesticks (you know: just a small cup to hold the candle (or tealight) on a wire with a heavy (but either small or flat) base). Just eliminate the cup, paint & flock and you have a perfect base with a low point of gravity. I will enlarge this one slightly with a thin metal base though: it stands very well and firm on a flat surface, but I'm not too sure about a flocked gametable with a battle in full swing...

Nice job! Would be better if it has a forward mounted working water cannon though!

A really nice model and very inspiring. Only think I'd add is some RUST!!! (but you know what my stuff looks like) and perhaps a bit of battle damage etc.. I REALLY like the extendable tail section.

Strangely enough I just found a super soaker in a bin a couple of hours ago....Think I'll have to do my own version. Probably wouldn't have thought of it without your pics though!

The water cannon still works...

Thx, Curtis,

Excellent design. The finished ship is a true inspiration. Nice to see a French flyer for a change.
