Maybe I should feel sorry - but I ain't!  ;)

I am very pleased, though, that You folkes like it so much! Thanks again - very motivating!

Actually I like to repeat that I am really really really amazed, what kind of other - sorry - very cool shit there is in here splattered all over the forum ... when my Tau-hammerhead conversion is finished (in approximately 1000 years form now °_O) I will show it, too ^^
It is really great to look at and share all these things!

Loving it. I really like the ironclad idea, and the paint and details you are putting into look great.
Keep up the fine work.

Since you had asked, I have posted shots of my Orc ship in another thread, or you can look here. I won't post pictures here - feels like thread hijacking.

Besides, yours is significantly cooler than mine, and I don't need to see how much by putting them side by side.

This is an amazing build, not to mention the painting  8) - kudos to Sinewgrab too - very Orky!

Afraid scanning the plans for the Volkswagn for you has slipped my mind - been a bit busy at work lately but will endeavour to try and do it this week - mind you it looks like you're doing more than alright on your own!  :D

I really thought a little bit about background and fluff for the machinery, and I came up with the idea of some piston engine. But since a petrol/gasoline/fuel/alcohol-driven engine would make no sense, I "invented" a coal-dust-explosion-machinery. But do not ask me how it is working exactly ... it is top-secret dwarven technology - sorry, folkes!  ;D

A lovely piece of work, sir! About the fuel: I have created the background for a campaign more than a year ago, but due to lack of time it hasn't been activated yet.  For those who want to know more about the Dwarven (Dworffs, actually... lol) coal-dust fuel: it's all here (in the introduction to the planet Minerva):
