Title: What can I build with this?
Post by: Dewbakuk on June 29, 2011, 04:18:50 PM
Plywood disks from cable reels. Aprox 6mm thick and 350mm accross.

I have stacks. The obvious thing is scenery bases but I wondered if anyone had a better idea?

Cheers

wrap a bit of foamcore around the drum and then dress it up with some windows and doows... and you could come up with some interesting sci-fi housing blocks... get fancy and you could have some recessed balconies... roof garden

A VSF version of the Great Panjandrum?

Basically an uncontrollable rocket-propelled bomb just as likely to blow you up as the enemy.

That could work, you could do some large recessed areas due to the depth.

A VSF version of the Great Panjandrum?

Tempting as that is I think it'd be a bit big :)

They'd be big buildings and shipping might not be cheap, reels are given away free though. I can find out though if you do actually want some? Not sure how readily available they are for people to use in kits though ;)

Sorry about that, I'm not very good with millimetres! That's why none of my figures go together with each other.  lol

A revolving work space or put a couple of "shelves" in and use it as a revolving paint holder.

With some additions of bits and blocks, you could make those into some very underhive styled towers.

With the right detailing it could be an outer space station type thing for Battle Fleet Gothic or Firestorm Armada (centrifugal gravity you see)
Also a few together standing upright with some odds and bobs (for bowsers) would make a modern looking fuel station (Caltex, shell etc), just also add the kiosk where you pay.
4 together with a platform on top (to cover the gaps) would make a great base for an oil refinery.

Those are just off the top of my head, i'm all out of ideas now :P
