I've just been priming the new shield generator (shown abov and a load of other resin Oshiro scifi scatter terrain, only for my makeshift spray booths to come crashing down on to a concrete garage floor. Not a single piece broke, so that's testament to how good they are. I'm going to be ordering more!

I couldn't agree more - have a number of Oshiro's buildings now (with more in the paint queue) plus loads of scatter, and I'm already thinking about the next order - well made & excellent quality.

Haven't got the new shield generator yet (but its on my list) - I like the look of the panelled sides, so hope to see more in that style as well.

[Elk101]

I really like it, it's a useful bit of kit.

100%...lots of possibilities 

Look forward to seeing your painted terrain...need to get on with my own, but away loads for work until Dec.

[Elk101]

Cheers. I think my motivation would have gone if they'd smashed into pieces! 

[OSHIROmodels]

Cheers lads 

Yes, there will be a few more buildings of this style. Just working out if the larger ones will be worth the effort of casting or not.

Makes sense that smaller models will sell more and hence reach the breakeven quicker...especially if the core components can be reused for multiple variants (eg turbo laser turrets etc).

I appreciate that more models produced equals more cost equals more financial risk... so there is also a responsibility on those of us that want the products, to cough up some cash when they are produced (and from past experience of producing minis myself I know that those promises don't always materialise when the product is available).

Personally I'd particularly love to see the following:

-Another variant of the original wall material that provides some more height...eg a two storey tower
-A "bunker' in the wall panels
-An "observation/guard tower" in the wall panels



I'd happily commit to multiples of the above ...  appreciate that the breakeven is going to be a substantial number of sales.

Akula always makes great points and suggestions.  The individual wall panel idea is spot on.  A spin off of that idea would be wall plates that can be used to add detail to a blank wall.  Not necessarily the normal gubbins like pipes but fairly simple repetitive shaped plates that can be added on.
This was the closest that I could find to mu suggestion.

I agree- I am always looking for little bits to tune up my home-built stuff.

Off to a bit of a late start with new releases as we had a bit of damage during the storm earlier last week and it needed a fair bit of repairing.

Back on track now and the first release for the year is a sensor dish. It either comes on a 'control station' or is available separately.

It does have a 25mm 'plug' as standard and will fit our other towers and emplacements (as shown in the vehicle photo)

The last two are certainly being worked on

It's a good idea and I'll certainly look into it

Another cracking piece. I'll be picking one up with my next order.

[OSHIROmodels]

Thanks

Love it - definitely adding to my next order

That's great news...with the shield generator, and the radar dish (and maybe a couple of gun turrets) all of a sudden you've got an Imperial base

 

[rumacara]

Already on the wanted list.

Now that is a real good bit of kit.  Very nice.
