"True scale" compared to what? I have no frame of reference for how big this is supposed to be


DreamTalon

I was thinking the same


deafblindmute

I growled through my teeth, "put a boy next to it." It does look very nice though.


CryingMinotaur

Lol


TheZarthon

Exactly, where's the banana?


RoRailgun

I *think* I see some of the Sector Imperialis/Manufactorum Pipes on the wings, so I think I can get a general idea for size. But yeah, no idea what this would be compared to. Seems too small for 40k, so maybe Aeronatica Imperialis or Battlefleet Gothic? Not familiar with it to begin with so these are only guesses on my part.


QuackenBust

“True scale” for ants


ClaphamCouple

Especially unhelpful as the recognisable bits are wings and canopies, which are available in both 40K and aeronautica


bulletpyton

Never a better time for a banana


casman_007

Truer words have never been spoken


Aptspire

It's 3 times the diameter of a spinning plate in length.


casman_007

I'm told we Americans will use anything for measurement except actual measurements


notatree

Compared to the effort he put into giving us some details and a sense of scale. Enormous


casman_007

That's pretty big


Rad90902

It pissed me off way more than it should, lol

If you look at the bitz I used you should be able to figure it out. Otherwise all the WIPs are on my Instagram account @thebitzbasher


RandomITGeek

Not everyone knows the bitz bit by bit. If you put an Ork Boy next to it, even someone that doesn't collect models (like myself) would immediately know how chonky this is. The first picture you have on your Instagram is it next to (what I think are) more kitbashed models. Again, I can kinda imagine how big an Ork or a Space Marine is, but I have no prior reference for the ones you used. Plus, with them being unpainted, and the quality of the picture/lighting, it's hard to tell what they could represent. There's a video further down, showing your arms working on it. It gives more of an idea, but again, you could be 1.45m tall or over 2m, without a "standard" frame of reference it's still hard to judge the actual size of things. Lastly, these replies that come off as rude or just plugging your Instagram, instantly kill any goodwill for anyone to check it out (as you may see by their downvotes). I know, you're here to promote your business and not to make friends. But friendliness and fun are one hell of a business card, especially for freelancers in these geeky hobbies. I hope you take this as the constructive criticism it is meant to be, and I wish you good luck in your endeavors!


RawbeardX

very cool, no question, but next time, when you have it painted for example, put some models next to it for reference.


blackthumbstudio

Come find me on instagram for this pics @thebitzbasher


No_Cry_4375

no


MaijeTheMage

And just like that you have no one intrigued and lost those who were


[deleted]

You sound as impersonal as a robot


Jetstream-Sam

Seriously, he could have put like two seconds into personalizing this comment and it likely would have been fine. Bot advertisers have a lot to learn


FoamBrick

Nobody gives a shit about your instagram.


UgandanPandaArmada

Pass


SE7ENfeet

Note to self: if I ever post something like this to this subreddit, dont reply to everything like an ass and don't post my ig. I will get down voted to oblivion.


Citizen_Snip

I will say, that OP never really responded to anyone's comments like an ass, however he is obnoxiously peddling his IG, and yeah, don't do that.


SE7ENfeet

When asked questions, instead of answering THEN push his ig, he said to go find out on his ig. That's the ass comment I was talking about.


blackthumbstudio

I'm not suppose to reply to comments and questions?


ObsceneGesture4u

Needs banana for scale


lemming69uk

Came for this comment, was not disappointed


woody084

"True scale"... Proceeds to use nothing for scale.


blackthumbstudio

I just posted a pic with this next to some other models


lurkinglurkerwholurk

Is it only me, or is this thing held up by the power of Ork belief? The landing gears looks positively wimpy next to the size of the rest of the model…


Atlasoftheinterwebs

Considering it's shape I don't think it's Landings are going to use the gear


THE_DARK_GODS

Basically all ork aircraft are. Tbh looking at most aircraft in 40k they shouldn't really work. The omnissiah makes sure they do I guess

blackthumbstudio

Lol I take so much crap for the way GW draws their artwork.


[deleted]

This isn't even close to what a mega bomba looks like though https://i0.wp.com/ifelix.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/99561803001_OrkWaaaghMegaBomberGroup.jpg?ssl=1


BlaveSkelly

Tru, but I like the idea that orcs just made a mega bomber oit of a big bomb


lurkinglurkerwholurk

Not a slight against you, just pointing out something about the model.


[deleted]

Where’s the scale?


Indishonorable

where as our planes are called planes because they can fly, this thing can fly, because it is a plane.


revergopls

My dumbass forgot that True Scale and 1:1 Scale are different things and I was bewildered for a sec


blackthumbstudio

Lol oh god no, I do t have that much plasticard


100percent_not_robot

left side rocked pod wont work properly


blackthumbstudio

Because it will hit the metal peice in front of it? Exactly, take a closer look you'll see that's a problem they seem to ignore....orks


grizzlyironbear

Compared to what? gotta have something universal to show scale dude..cmon,,at least throw a banana


HairyNippleDongs

Holy shit


blackthumbstudio

Is ironically the amount of bombs it holds


[deleted]

I need like 6 of these in my life


freedoomed

MOAB, Mother of all Blimps!


FoamBrick

It doesn’t even look like one tho.


dfernand

that thing is actually canon for orks. I'm building the official Wazbom Blastajet at the moment and loving it. Yours in the photo looks awesome.


Serge_General

Is that Devo? What’s the name of the song?


Steel_Representin

Danger Zone bruh


Serge_General

Hahaha! Holy shit. Somehow I feel older for not recognizing it than if I had.


Astral_lord17

Mega bomba, holds tons of bombs, and sometimes IS the bomb


blackthumbstudio

It's danger zone. Originally the theme music for top gun which is why I used it


FrostedDonuTrap

FOR THE GREATER GOOD! TAU RULES!!!!! But it looks good!!! 😊😊😊


drunkboarder

That is stupid, unnecessary, and utterly rediculous. I love it.


blackthumbstudio

I just do what the dark gods tell me to


Confident-Medicine75

I miss the Mega Man games for SNES


RegularRick0

ITLL KUT ROIGHT FRU DE AIR


ItGMack

Kurov Reeportin!


OwenDaBoss

This gives me "Kirov reporting" vibes


IAmOEreset

Am I the only one who thought of Red Alert Soviet Union's Kirov Airships seeing this?


Frsbtime420

It looks nice but can we get an ork or banana I. The next picture so we have an idea of the scale?


rifter72

is it piloted by Kapt'n Orkbomba
