Thanks James! I may well need some luck. It looks like a tricky thing to build.

that's reminding me of the hellion from the screaming for vengeance cover.  Makes my idea look completely sane from a work involved point of view

For 28mm gaming? It will be a big bird, won't it?

Sorry for the lack of updates. 2017 has been horribly hectic, without a week so far where I worked less than 70-80 hours. I've hardly made any progress on the build and there is no chance I can finalise it in the imparted time.

Things are calming down a bit and I may get some hobby time soon. I'll see whether I can come up with something less ambitious. That said, I'm not overly optimistic and I'm afraid I probably have to balk out of the contest.

Good luck everyone!
