We have standards and a reputation to maintain 

You reputation sir is secure. Your troops... well, they tried.

Wow that is some build you have there! All of the added detail under the arches are great too!

I've made a start on a Corpo HQ building (as we need somewhere to hide  ). It'll take a while to complete as I've got a fair amount of other stuff on at the moment.

Rough sketch first and I think I'll be changing the top level to be mainly glass as that will be the control room with consoles and it would be good to see inside it.

I think I might do the internal walls at 5mm as it'll give more room and look less cramped (they're not stuck in yet). I might also bring them down 5-10mm or so as well and get the height by having 'false' ceilings in the upper floors.

Giving it some colour was suggested by Nick so I did a little sample and will be going with the style on the right as it won't look to out of place.

It will probably have a vehicle yard as well but that will be a separate element so it can potentially be used for something else.

Lovely Work Jimbo, I think it's going to be a great one!

I like the colour choice that you're going for, although there is something quite domineering about the HQ being built from off-world materials, making it stand out to the planet's inhabitants.

This will look great but then when doesn't your terrain? 

[OSHIROmodels]

Thanks

That’s a good idea but my thinking is that this has been repurposed from something else. I might do another building out of different materials. Don’t know what sort of building though

Looking forward to placing thermal detonators inside the Corpo's HQ

You can try 

And will probably succeed

You should save yourself some time and just model a smoking crater.

Tempting

Oof is that going to be 2 tone like old military complexes (imagine bond in goldeneye moscow KGB prison/archives) that will look cool, i like the yellow stripe. That's going to look cool if so. You could do 2 tone inside too to differentiate the different levels or departments.

But one little issue, theres only 3 floors James? I think Akula's may be bigger.. you may need the architects to do overtime to rectify that post haste.

It's only a sketch

Surely there are all the floors...below ground
