Just a small update...












I've still got a bit of work to do. Jimbibbly has very kindly offered to supply laser cut window frames to jazz the model up!!!! I thought I'd post this up to see what you all think. Wither I'm going in the right direction or not?

Cheers!

Wow!
That looks amazing!
The metalwork looks fantastic. Great paint job.


Edit; What have you used for the water?
Is it some sort of plastic, or is it a 'water effect' thingymajig?

Cheers guys. It's good to get positive feedback! Mason the water is polyfilla on a bit of card. It's just pressed repeatedly with a soggy finger to make wave shapes, painted GW regal blue, washed with chaos black, and highlight with hawk turquoise, the spacewolf grey, then White. Followed by a liberal amount of cheap gloss varnish.

Thanks for the info, Andym!
Will be giving that one a go.

Must acquire a 'soggy finger' ASAP!

This is unreal.  It is simply amazing.  I wish I could build/play on boards like this.
This is my boomstick!

Your game project is truely fantastic.  The effort put into it leaves me in awe.  I live in the USA so will not be able to attend the convention.  I rarely go to conventtions to tell the truth because Im cheap and not much catches my interest.  If your game was in a US convention I would be going.
