Ship/Watercraft - what happened to my Bentley?

Luv the progress and direction of this one.. Great subject, has that steampunk/Wells/Victorian feel to it, luv that genre... Great work there..
 
Great project you have going here. Very imaginative way to kitbash a one of a kind subject! I also love the Steampunk feel; keep up the good work.
 
Thank you all!
Well it's been a while, but I was concentrating on my main entry "The Hunt".
But since that one has completed the build/sculpt stage I finally had a few days to wrap up the Bentley.

I had everything stored away on a tray - ready to be picked up again

Most of the actual built was already done, but one major item was the windshield

I built it out of two layers of plastic card and a layer of thin clear plastic

Next I still had to finish the motor "stands"

And then all major items were already built

So I gathered my various rivet pods

and started riveting :)

It's one of these Zen works I love doing

Well, and that's it :)

The Bentley is now ready to receive some masking tape and then it's prime(r) time :D

I hope you like this little "outside the box" built ;)

Thank you guys!

I was able to also finish the paintjob on the "Swamp Thing" (my wife was on a business trip for a week ;) )

I have no paint-in-process images here (but can deliver if requested).
I'm quite happy with the result, the only annoying thing is that I didn't think when I appied the varnish at the end, and now the lights and the windshield are opaque :(

I hope you like it.
So, into which category will it fit? Sci-Fi or watercraft, or both?
Cheers

That's awesome, and don't worry about the windscreen and lights, it adds to the effect!
