Nautilus

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.

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

eeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

 

i am a BIG FAN of weird marine life! and the skull-shells make a GREAT chambered shell! this is perfect!

 

(the only gripe is tentacle count, but i can see why that is how it is. :u)

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.

This is awesome! It looks just like a nautilus.

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.
