"Ehm, jaa, it.....ze machine is not functioning properly! I am checking ze manual now...."

"Ah, Dummkopf, ze machine is not plugged in......."

(So much for the brightest minds in the Reich)

Was bored at work today (what else is new) and wondered if I could build me a few vendingmachines for 20mm. Came home, cut the pieces out of 0.5mm plasticcard, primed and painted. And now it's done. The things u can do on a Fridaynight with a beer and a brush.

Decals I-94 LW-100 pack and the rear is from a Luftwaffe helicopter. The bean and cup are freehand (and admittedly, not my best)

The use? I never care much about use :D. Ok, it'a just a scenic piece fro modern till sci-fi. Might even go for a Halflife style Medical and Power dispenser too if I feel like it :D

Some better shots:

Not bad for a rusty and beat up coffee machine with flaking paint (my excuse for the streaky and sometimes just a tad too thick paint)

And yes, it's 20mm

Enjoy!

Love the rust effects and the stains on the top!
Scenic bits like that add a bit of character to a games table.

It looks fantastic, but a bit too grimey to actually make me want to pay for its coffee  :lol:

The top is great, that really makes the model for me.

Really great! The love for details is what makes a good piece into a very good piece. Really cool!

Excellent.   The cup rings on top of the machine send it over the top!  Great work.

You should know the Coffee running gag from the austrian 80es crime comedy serial "Kottan ermittelt"

never too late to admire something, also brings it to attention of people who did not know it before
