Excellent!
Are those parts from the Atlantis toy submarine "Ulysses"?

Yes it is all from the atlantis toys, it was a hard work to build it. The riveted planks on the hull are all sawn out of the submarine frame. I still wait for my reviresco parts and then I will finish it.

Oh, now that walker is a treat. Love to hear what the body's made of, because that looks almost purpose-made.

A great bit of steam jiggery-pokery going on there.

I would think of that as a 'heavy' class walker though, as it looks like the Prussian one on the front cover, which is a chunky metal menace.
That Steam Boy toy looks a perfect fit.

Nice work!
