I did it!

Per this blog entry, I wanted to make a nautilus-type thing after discovering a way to make a nice wheel shape from the Skull Buddies' new armor pieces. So I did, finally.

Images are links to images. Gallery when public.

e: Decided to switch the tentacles to the shorter thicker ribbed hoses. I think it looks better this way.

Nice use of the new skull villain armor pieces. It is without a doubt recognizable as a Nautilus.

Also didn't notice this at first, but loving the use of the Kraata container lids. Clever.

This is an epic model. I wish I could see it more clearly — the photos are sort of blurry and don't do it justice.

I definitely prefer it with the shorter hoses.

Awesome! Totally looks like a nautilus. It was definitely a good idea to switch to the shorter, thicker hoses. The idea for the shell is really clever. It would be cool if you could find a way to extend the shell out around the tentacles a little, but either way it looks great.
