Clickbait for sure! I remember @ARMORMAN announcing he became Grandpa by referencing the Blessings of Nurgle (spitup and full diapers...) a couple years back... Well, it all fir back together! The epoxy didn't make the head too big to fit back in place! On to the hips and exhaust. Going...

Going a bit further with the greebles here. Using some Magic Sculpt 2 part epoxy to make some organic bits and hose, along with the crafting googley eyes.

They are a gamer family, so it's going to be appreciated by both Bride and Groom.

Into construction! Got the base of the upper body together before a pause for dinner and errands. Also dug up some reference photos from the usual places, DakkaDakka, Pintrest, and Google images.

Okay, I am in good health. Just a 40K joke, as the Chaos god Nurgle is the deity of rot, decay, and diseases. I am building this as a gift. A friend of mine, and fellow 40K lore fan, got married and I didn't find a good gift for the wedding. So I am making one. He chose a dreadnought, and...

Awesome-sauce!

Groovy!

Rumor has it @dr_tetrode officially retired or something this last Friday. Congratulations! Looking forward to seeing more of your work on these forums! Of course, that is after getting some 'deferred maintenance' and Honey-Do items for Mrs. Tetrode out of the way first...

Driver and gunner stations going well! Primer is drying on these.

Got some more steady progress on the front of the APC interior.

Greetings! Thanks for all the comments! Been enjoying the new job. Lots more modeling in Inventor, beats doing the same product but slightly different 2D CAD, I was doing before! Still got the t-squares, triangles, and various templates standing by though, in case of computer failure...

A bit of a look inside the walls, about 12mm or so in width. Added some more supports to beef it up. Right side is done, will finish it later after some sleep and free time opens up again. It's been too long since I had a good hobby project!

Also, got my flood damage repaired and a new work space! Won't be remote working anymore though, got a new job position with the company, and it's in office/shop. I have gone from drafter to manufacturing engineering technician (drafter with additional tasks in tool and die). So, well see how...

Number 2 is armored from the ground up! These were put together on vacation (Broken Bow OK, USA; during the time we spent waiting for the total Solar Eclipse). Now, to reverse engineer!

Also, I have another one of these on my workbench from a vacation where I started building one with more lamination. It'll get the Sudsy treatment (i.e. coated with acrylic paint)!

Well, it'll make a fun video when I film it burning. My Vulture model may turn it into target practice! :cool: A neighbor has loaned me a de-humidifier, so we should be drying out soon in spite of the next wave coming here in a few hours. At least this time I will be awake and have a pump in...

Glad you all like it! Thank you very much! I will have to make more... Once the dust settles!

For those who haven't ready Howard Tayler's webcomic "Schlock Mercenary" here is the origin story of the Maxim 32 above from his blog. Seems appropriate. Also, beware, that webcomic is addictive and has a DEEP archive (even though he finished the story).

Maxim 32. Everything is amphibious if you can get back out of the water. -The Seventy Maxims of Maximally Effective Mercenaries (Howard Tayler "Schlock Mercenary") Well, had a bit of a flood this morning. 8"/200 ish mm of water hit in overnight. We have a paper Armored vehicle down! Well...

Sharing my secret sauce! Well, not really... I think I actually learned this here. I just happened to film myself and blabber unscripted about it. Here's to all the Zealots who taught me this recipe among many others!
