Smol Bote

41.4k MrVaultech  3.6 years ago

Just outta nowhere last night, while not sleeping like the healthy adult I am, just really wanted to build a brand new river monitor to replace my older one that didn't age terribly well.

I ended up with this lil cutie of a death barge, with two turrets carrying a single 128mm cannon, and two turrets on port and startboard with a single 15mm HMG.
Have the capitain doing his stuff up in the fly bridge, but with an option to move into the bow for a significantly more protected, but visually limited compartment with a few optics to see from.

Plus I totally somehow tricked the giga Chad that is Kerlonceauxindustries into making lettering of the ship class (Nida) onto the hull, so hopefully should have this out pretty soon since I slapped it together so quickly overnight.


So it appears the pro gamer that is NumbersNumbersTheMan went and threw my smol bote it with the bigg bois, with one of the pictures being added to his big bote forum teaser!

    Excellent
    I've been fortunate enough to have been on the M.33, and this really looks the part.

    Kinda base it off some of the Post-Civil War American ironclad monitors, as well as various Russian and other Baltic monitors for reference. But hey, that means I succeeded with my goal!
