Dwalin Forkbeard has built a cracking little Dwarven gyrocopter, packed full of fantasy steampunk goodness. The model takes inspiration from the Warhammer tabletop fantasy wargame, and I think it’s brilliant. A clanking, whirling, mechanical marvel with no chance of achieving lift in real life – this is my favourite kind of steampunk flying machine…

The dark green curved section sits atop a wonderfully greebly underside, studded with functional-looking appendages. The cannon at the front is nicely integrated and looks wonderfully stubby. The star of this show however, is the rotor assembly – a fantastic piece of machinery seemingly cobbled together from spare cogs and timber. Great stuff.
