Whats the humdrum about Chaps? Adventures into Victorian Science Fiction and Steampunk with ramblings about Aeronefs, Dirigibles, Land Ironclads, Anarchists, Dinosaur Hunting, Terranefs, Aquanefs, Mad Scientists, and all manner of electric contraptions and steam conveyances. It may not make sense, but there will be claret and a nice cheese board at the end. Tally-Ho and "Vôtre dans une sauce au vin blanc!"

Floating Battery arrives!
My partner in VSF adventures popped in yesterday to show me the postie delivered...
A beautiful model by Oshiro and crisply cast too. A lovely addition and I'm super envious!
Yes towed about- kind of an armoured and well armed WW1 Balloon really
Yes the deck panelling is a lovely very thin veneer - there are also some 20mm round sections of it too, so your crew's bases will match. Lovely little touch!
Oh yeah, its gorgeous! Sadly Gav has now 'lost' it somewhere in the detritus of his multiple hobby spaces (probably because I challenged him to paint it over the Christmas break :-)

Towed into place as a defense structure?
Is the deck very thin wood? Texture or just printed?

Well that's a classy touch!
Spiffing stuff!
