A new build....the time machine

[deranged chipmunk]

Now, this tank is very different from any tank I have built before. I normally try to make my tanks look very natural, a little slice of nature. Since the theme of this one is steam punk, it needs to be very industrial looking. Geometric. Mechanical. I opted for no wood in this tank. Instead, copper pipes will run throughout, replacing the wood. So I started running my pipes.






Disassembled everything and marked it so it can go back together in the right order before I paint it. The second pic is an example of the pipe after painting. It was my test piece.





And here is the humidifier I am modding to deliver my "steam"



This is, no joke, the easiest humidifier to mod. You'll see how easy in my next update.

must admit i'm not a fan of theme builds, because they are usually poorly done, this one looks like it could be great, knowing whose behind it helps too lol. I have thought of building a kind of "wasteland" viv myself, background being a small broken down wall with a fake can as a hide etc also would have a bit of an eco warrior feel to it, showing what will probably be in the future for animals in the wild etc etc etc.
