One of my many projects is to make a properly proportioned gun housing for the Armageddon pattern Basilisk and Medusa.

Note the attached picture from ForgeWorld.

I have been unable to reverse engineer the proper sizes of the various faces of the housing, so I'm hoping that somebody out there owns either the FW Armageddon pattern B or M. If so, could you measure the side lengths? I'll give you a dollar.

Update: just ordered a 28mm scale Armageddon Medusa to help with the de-biggerization.

de-biggerization.

I am going to have to find a way to use that at work in a meeting.

I just *love* the English language. Need a word? just make one up! :D

Well, the most time honored way is to steal one from another language.

The opposite of "de-biggerization" is, of course, "embiggen". It's a perfectly cromulent word.

Several of 'The Simpsons' words actually have made it into the dictionary so there's hope for 'de-biggerization' yet

waiting to see the results of this Mr Otter

Ooooh, tasty! Looks good enough to print...

Do I smell the toasted ozone of rapid prototypers warming up?

I didn't show the backside, which is entirely bare.

But yes, after the back has been detailed I'm going to send it and the Space Zombie Robot terrain articles off to print. Oh, and a cannon for it, too...
