That crawler is inspired! 8) Good use of the Poundland van as well! ;) I’m looking forward to seeing what you do with that!

So are you going to magnetize the underside of the platform so the xenos can crawl along the bottom of it  :D
This is looking seriously awesome.

Yeah, I was, erm, inspired by a certain thread on here!!!! ;)  ;D The colour scheme should hint at what it's going to be . . . . a touch of real world thrown into future world.

Little bit of an update - the home made battlemat (plastic backed dust sheet, caulk and chinchilla sand):


And getting a move on with some pipes:

A little update from last nights first little playtest. As usual, I made mistakes. The main one being forgetting to bring the xenos! Grey minis stood in for them for this game.











And because the best results seemed to come on the food setting . . . . . .

We had another test run last night, I could spam all of the images but probably easier just to do some and share the folder (mods, might be worth looking at an option to be able to embed imgur albums, I know there is one on other forums I go on).

Fighting on the gantry gets fraught -



Got to search those crates!


Get to da choppa!



Don't forget to double tap . . . . (double head strike in combat with a big xeno = SUCCESS!)

Game night three, last week, and another chance to show off bits of the table that I have been completing. The table is now complete, and shots will follow from Salute if not before if I get a chance to set some bits and bobs up for shots.





Do not mess with the platypus:

KAAAABLAAAAMMMM!!!!

A busy few weeks but was nice to meet some of you in person at Salute and/or Diceni.

Didn't a chance to take many images of Salute, but here is an album for Diceni:

Your needing to show more of finished stuff. From your Imgur album I was only managing to grab glimpses of the crawler and what looks like other Poundland vehicles.

And the dropped refinery which I am now tasked with having to rebuild  :'( Right at the end of the day too. Gutted.

I will take more photo's - need to do group shots of the survivors, Xeno's and vehicles as you say. Need to find a funky background to shoot them in front of. Any suggestions? I was thinking some desktop wallpapers I could print onto card etc.

Two options really. Either just get a model railway background or (and probably the easier option) just get a big bit of card and spray so it looks like some weird alien colour of sky....

Ok, so the arrival of a deadzone battlemat today helped inspire me to do a photoshoot, hopefully better images for you here:
