What's on with all those Aquanauts projects? Everybody lost interest?
Too quiet on the underwater front ...  :D

I'm busy making an underwater Kugel for the Prussians  and a Sub Tube for the British... haven't actually gotten around to doing any.. doing.. yet. I think my primary objects has to be to figure out some custom transporting system that will allow my brittle styrene constructions to survive airport security.

I've stalled a wee bit on the underwater base. I've got a couple of wee things to finish for a .45 adventure mini campaign then it's back to work.

I've decided to attempt a Hergé Shark Submarine for this.

Gun Bunny- yeah that was the plan. I was thinking of making it removable. I've made a wee killer whale landing craft and I was planning to use the same water effect from that project on the moon pool. Make it some sort of insert that I can take out or cover, then I could cheat and use the base as a moonbase as well for a future project.



Dr The Viking- that'll be cool. I couldn't work out how to make a shark, there's some difficult shapes if your building it from scratch!

My other project is finished, waiting to play with our Wednesday night gaming group. I don't want to show it until they've seen it. But that's been taking a lot of time and with LPL about to start I haven't had much time. So now it's time to get back on track for BLAM...



That's three sheets of pink foam and a bucket of plaster. I've now got the time AND the good lady is away all week. Perfect to try and get the board done.

Any ideas or suggestion would be much appreciated........

Edit....


Just tried everything on it I've made so far.
