Other People's Stuff: RMS Titanic meets the Martian Tripods!

Whilst at Pendraken Miniatures the other day, one of the Confederate players purchased some SciFi Tripods. 

"Titanic escorted by Rodney trying to escape from the invasion only to be ambushed at sea"

As you can see, Bren has made a cracking good job on them. 

[Of note: Bren has extended the Tripod legs - (Bren explains the process) "The legs are extended with wooden dowls and the joints are thick paper, lots of pva and superglue gel. I concaved the end of the dowels to make it fit and have more contact, would have been a pain* to do with metal I think." - increasing the height of the model and creating a 'knee-joint' on the alien machines.]

*Bren's original choice of word has been substituted with a U-rated alternative, less this blog post be rated as PG-13.

The accompanying ship models are 1/700, HMS Rodney and RMS Titanic.
