Ere we go, ere we go. Ok I don’t have a lot to show, but I have made some progress! I’m really liking the Dakka Boat. She is coming together me thinks. My mind has been on painting, but I have to resist and finish the builds first. So I went back and flipped the side exhaust chambers over yet again. The habstack that sits on top of the exhaust pipe needs a bit of cleaning up (I seem to have a hard time getting crisp edges with green stuff, I’m going to go back and work on it with a razor knife), and I’ve got a few more tweaks and she should be “good to goâ€. Oh I still need to hit the caution bars on the prow ram plate and bash it up a bit. Sure is a lot of love for a 25 point model. Oh well it’s the nature of Da Beast!
Here is a side by side shot for scale.
And this shot I just thought looked kind of cool.
Here is Da Mugga. Now I’m a little lost with dis ship. It’s the top deck. I went away from my original idea of having a submarine looking bridge, and opted for jus a big gun. I figured the bridge would be in the roof above it. I’d build a round window and make it look like an eye of sorts. It doesn’t feel quite right so I’m thinking I’m going to scrap it and start over. The good news is the bits can be used latter on other projects. The big building behind the big gun I’m thinking is going to get cut off and replaced with what I envision to be some giant looking factory. With pipes sticking up and then a return to a bridge at the front. We will see. Over all I don’t think it’s bad, it’s just not what it wants to be. It’s on the tip of me tongue I just need to work it out. At any rate thanks for reading and sharing in me ship madness. Any ideas are more than welcomed and thank you for the work you guys are doing with the BFG:R Orks! Please take Proppa care of me boyz!
