I am quite enthused by your photo. The shanties are crazy good.

Right at the start of this thread you said you were using a SparkMaker for printing. Are you still on that or have you changed up? I have never thought about the idea of a digital printer but if I could get one that prints like those shanties or that radio dish...

The Sparkmaker has been decommissioned about half a year ago, now we're using two Anycubic Photon S. That's still a very old and cheap printer, pretty much behind anything available now. So yeah, any printer (except for some super cheap ones) would be able to print this stuff with the same level of detail or more!

I am just in awe of your work and really look forward to seeing more.

Still very much WIP, but it's getting a bit better every time i complete painting some more parts!

A lot more shanties to prepare, but we're getting there!

It's really wonderful when you see a table set up that looks realistic.I can imagine people actually living in that settlement, Little trade caravans coming in through the gate, bandits making raids from across the desert.

Lovely!

That is beautiful! Had a lot of fun going through your thread, so much tiny detail! Thanks for sharing your works in progress pictures too, really great stuff!

Thank you all, very kind!

I'm currently working through the large set of shanties. I think i'll settle with half of them painted ,the rest will have to wait a bit more as i'll focus on some new pieces instead first. Maybe some more Medina pieces would do.

I also have to start focusing on the other factions, that would require some focus as well.

Wow! that is absolutely awesome. Just a question, have you thought about a foot bridge or one for vehicles to span over those canyon gaps? Only because seeing the gas station, as to where it is at. I love to see what kind of idea you could come up with if you do.

TLF's other sculptor did those already! I just haven't painted some yet, so they were not included in the picture. That's indeed one of the many elements still to add to the table! Good point, though!

Did a first sculpt for the Enlisted - They're gonna end up being more "vanilla" humans than others, but i'm still having plenty of fun with the tanks!

More to follow!

Cheers,
Jack

Very nice & great technical design my friend. Love the clean straight lines.

Sketchup? I'm impressed.

Are you designing these for 6mm only?

If I may suggest, I would personnally put that turret on an elongated 8 wheel design ( medium tank ) & put a smaller turret ( apc) on it .

Thanks for sharing

I like that design a lot. For me it has a vibe like a futuristic version of a '50s British vehicle like a Saracen or Saladin. Sort of the same company's design for a similar application 70+ years later on. Or on another world 200+ years later. Great job, thank you for posting it.

Thanks! The models target 6-15mm (and i realize it's probably better for 15), i'm sure it could work in 28 but as always it'd be a bit chubby.
Yeah, I'm definitely going to mix up turrets a bit more - the slot is the same and people can glue them as they please!
8 wheels designs will follow for sure!!!

Thanks!! The whole design shape was taken from several illustrations online (first of all https://www.artstation.com/kondratovich ) but it clearly mimics the strikers that are around now. Larger vehicles won't have a real-life cousin, but i'll try to make them look reasonable too!
