Very cool.  I like the big-ass exhaust vents.  I'm a little iffy on the gun though.  It looks huge.  Hey, how about a mini in the picture, for scale?

Love the sub, don't like the gun. It's too clunky.
So many projects..... so little time.......

Lovely and inspiring. I agree on the comments about the gun.

I would love to see the painted version with suitable crew.

You should make a seperate "wake" base. THat woul sbe cool and increase the wow factor.

Again, great work, love the gun!

A tip for making wood look more realistic is to draw some grain into it with a pencil, score it down a little. Otherwise it can end up just looking like balsa....

The gun isn't too big at all!  Clearly it's Professor Faraday's Patent Galvanic Mass Lightning cannon, the Mark 8 model with heavy waterproofing and shielding for naval use!

With your talents, Tobsen, it'd be great if you could do a pulp rocketship...

Superb.

May I ask how you did certain items when I open my war factories?
I need to make several vehicles and you have a lot of skill in this area as I can see.
