Thanks has.been, you too.

Along with everyone else of course.

So roughly, I'm looking at Hagrid's Hut on AT-AT legs...... or something similar.


Away from home for a few more days so will put up some rough sketches in the coming days to, hopefully,  solidify the build in my head.

This is something I have wanted to build since discovering Sheelba Of The Eyeless Face. I'll now spend a bit of time living vicariously...

Your idea is giving me Baba Yaga vibes, looking forward to seeing what you make of it :)

Never heard of Sheelba before but have added the Hut to my list of inspiration now.


Baba Yaga I had heard of and this build will be similar but, hopefully, individual enough in itself.



At least it is not on Chubby Baby Legs.   lol lol lol



Possibly not quite that individual though  :D

After Aircav's detailed CAD work, here's my less technical build plan.

It may not be CAD, but it is still more preparation than I have done, or probably will do. :D

So some cutting, sanding and gluing has occurred over  the past couple of days to start getting the legs done; some wooden beads, chopsticks and clothes pegs for the feet.

I like how this is moving along.  Nothing like the chubby baby legs that I envisioned.

Really liking this start, and the difference already between these legs and the cool kitbashed legs in Snitchy's project!
