The vats look fine on their own but i wanted to take them a little further and add some functional scenery to the top as well as showing where the vats are filled, i decided the best way to do this would be to add an extra layer to the top which would have connections for pipes as well as acting as cover.

I build up a wall to add to the top of each tank, each wall would have a circular ring designed to fit over the brewdog plastic beer can holders and also have two holes designed to take standard 5mm drinking straws.I build up a wall to add to the top of each tank, each wall would have a circular ring designed to fit over the brewdog plastic beer can holders and also have two holes designed to take standard 5mm drinking straws.
I printed off the cap ans also printed off some small 7mm rings which would slide over the straws.I printed off the cap ans also printed off some small 7mm rings which would slide over the straws.
Cutting off the bendy section to each straw i fitted a ring to the bottom of each as a base.Cutting off the bendy section to each straw i fitted a ring to the bottom of each as a base.
I fitted the pipes to the inside of the wall, its only a small detail but it adds a bit of realism to the piece.I fitted the pipes to the inside of the wall, its only a small detail but it adds a bit of realism to the piece.
The finished cap panted up with gun-metal and rust from Vallejo and washed with strong and dark tone inks from army painter. The finished cap panted up with gun-metal and rust from Vallejo and washed with strong and dark tone inks from army painter.
The inside of the cap, unfortunately fitting the piece caused the paint work on the original cap to chip and flake but nothing another layer of paint wont fix.The inside of the cap, unfortunately fitting the piece caused the paint work on the original cap to chip and flake but nothing another layer of paint wont fix.

With the caps complete its time to look at making some extra pipes and a base for it all to sit on, back to the workshop…
