Drawing plans
Completed the drawing that I will need to create the wooden parts:
This is at 1:2 scale and so after printing I will be able to move the parts over to the correct size on the timber

Starting to model
I originally wanted the 3D printed end to almost look like rubble and broken rock but this proved to be immensely difficult 
As painfully evident from the photos this didn't go well.
For this reason I decided to cut my loses and move on which resulted in my creating this block:
I will next create drawings ready for cutting the wood and transparent details

Notes
After doing research to find the allowed measurements I started by brainstorming some ideas on paper and making so sketches. I went through quite a few ideas for features such as resin casts, a Warhammer figure, but my final idea before modelling will be a 3D print fused to a timber part and then some acrylic held together with supporting dowels.
On to start modelling...
