Tiny Little Steamboat...in a steampunk kind of way
Antonio Sobral:
Hello everybody
This is a tiny little project that I did a few months ago: a small steamboat that I later used as an accessory in a bigger steampunk diorama.
The scale is N (1:160 or so), which is a good thing because you have plenty of figures to choose from, from the scale modelling railroad world!
The original hull was savaged from a lifeboat stolen from the "La Superbe" ship (Heller).
The rest is just bits and pieces of plastic and metal scratchbuilt into something that remotely seems like a steam engine and related stuff:
For those not familiar with the 1 Eurocent coin dimensions, it is roughly 15% smaller that the US penny :)
The painting phase photos will follow shortly!

Welcome to Beyond The Sprues.
What kind of steam plant powers this little boat of yours. Is it a nuclear reactor or a conventional fossil fuel fired boiler? There is certainly a lot of detail in your little model boat.
RE: 1 Eurocent. Is that coin close to the German Pfennig in size?
GTX_Admin:
Nice work.
