Pate-keetongu Posted August 30, 2015 1924: Scottish Expedition led by adventurer Mr. Roy McBridge, equipped with Clam-type heavy diving suit, discovers the ancient ruins of the legendary New Atlantis at the bottom of the North Sea. This little diorama was built for Finnish LUG Palikkatakomo's summer contest with the theme of "finding, discovering". The idea was simply to build something around the top part of that diving mecha I had tablescrapped last winter. More photos can be found on my blog. Enjoy.

peedeejay Posted September 1, 2015 That mech is gorgeous! Reminds a bit of Bioshock. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colossus Posted September 1, 2015 Holy smokes! That mech is amazing! This thing is built like a tank. It seems a lot of the mechs anymore are thin, lithe, and frankly, too skinny for me. Your mech looks like it could withstand the crushing pressure from being on the seafloor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FonsoSac Posted September 6, 2015 I love all in this MOC. I like the minifigs. The ruins are great with that spiral column, the plants and the animals, It seems to be really under the sea. And the steampunk mech is really nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
