You just know you have to have a Terror Fish there somewhere - either lurking or as a wreck on the seabed, but It. Must. Be. Done. :rolleyes:  ;D

Womby, try looking up some of the dry paper-mache packets that should be available from craft stores - or some of the air-drying paper clay that comes in a pot.

Quite actually, no idea, one of my mates got a huge bag and I got two Kilo of that, which is almost a lifetime supply. Must have been online somewhere at the time, I have had this lot for 3-4 years.
However, I do see that it appears to be very available, Metro Hobbies in Melbourne have it on their online lists, plus plenty of other vendors appear to have it, your best local would be Adelaide Moulding and Candle supplies, they list it sculptamould-1-36kg

Thought about a terrorfish, in the end, decided to just do sealife.

So, I think this is just about done.
3D print of a shark, even with FDM it came out ok


Decals on


On the base, found a decent Octopus model to 3D print.. none of the squids on Thingiverse fitted what I was after.






I will have a final look before I post in the completed thread.
Thanks for your support during this

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I can hear the 'Stingray' theme tune just looking at the pics!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I was only 12 when it was on the telly so I probably didn't even know what warranted a "Book" entry then  :angel:

I was probably even younger (though it didn't make it onto the screens out here first time around) but I admit I've probably made up for lost time, since then...  ;)  :rolleyes:
