Title: Retro Spaceship objective
Post by: zrunelord on September 03, 2022, 06:27:58 PM

Hello again all,
I had this idea to do a Retro Spaceship objective. I will make it crash landed & add 2 fallen grey aliens from alternative armies.

The door is a milk carton inside cap, the nose is a sparkling wine cap, the main body is an led lamp & then card. I think it is simple yet effective.

Looks great! I can't wait to see what it looks like all painted up and ready for the tabletop.

That is looking rather interesting! I like to see how you finish it.

Love a good piece of junk terrain.  Very much looking forward to seeing it finished!

Thanks all.

I should have added this pic to show the semi opened door ( this is the inside of a milk carton spout. Oil bottle ones can be used also )

I think I will use a little bit of exp foam to model the base & push the spaceship into it while it's still wet.

Will post pics Soon(ish)

I might be able to make a crashed spaceship.  It would make a great objective.

I'm getting inspiration here. I've got a half built crashed spaceship sitting in my to-do queue and this is making me want to get it done.. Keep it up!

Foam block turned into crashed shuttle:

That is like 1990's Star Trek Retro.

Or, if you want 1980's retro...

Agree with Z. It will come along. Just keep gluing and painting.
