Roll Out The Big Guns!

Hi, All.

Armour plating complete and cannons in place. Things are starting to look dangerous!

Here's the latest on the HMSW Gargantua. I'm a little tired of painting red outlines, so I've taken a break to take a pew pics and post this report.

As you can see, the legs are still missing, but I'm getting close...

Closeups of the gun-ports and red outlining. Discs mark where the legs will attach.

The almost-finished rear deck. I still need to add a ladder and hand-rail around the engine.

The red outlining is a slow process but I think it's worth it for that very Victorian look. I'll try to get up-to-date with it as quickly as I can, and then it's all hands on legs!

Since my last post, the rivet-count has risen by a further 176, to 1,936! And there are a great many more to come when the legs take shape...

I've also begun construction of a steering wheel. Gatling guns and other various details to follow.

So that's all for a bit. More soon!

All The Best!
