These are built from mostly cardboards, card stock, puff fabric paint,
repurposed household items plasticard...
First is one for the Imperial navy

They look like US Civil War  ironclads gone wild. :D
I look forward to see how they turn out.

Pretty cool! Make some torpedo boats and mines next!  :D
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Now splash some colour on the boats, paint the surface of the glass table sea blue and wage sea war :)

These are a hoot!

Hi again all...
Hey Bezzo...on the stern and bow of twin turret Ork ship is a low cupola...and one large cupola on the imperial ship's gun turret...for battle sighting...any other time orders can be given from turret stations I guess...
as far as cannons being loaded....how 'bout an "autoloader" system....?...eh?
Ya I try to think of everything...lol

Finished Imperial...




Cheers!!
