"Twin hunters mate, boy and a girl." - Good Man!!! Teach them the good miniatures games!!! Plus this means you will soon be able to use the children's toys for scenery and miniature sources!

"Had a good xbox live session with Akula on L4D2 last night: Dark carival. Suffice to say it didn't end well!" - Might I suggest the "easy" level?  :D ;D lol

Can anyone give me the "American terminology" for what these thing are?

What the heck are those?

Cool stuff mate, very creative... Never would have seen those. I can never quite get over how much stuff I have just walked past that would have been brilliant for one thing or another. I just don't have the money or space to be buying stuff like that all the time!!! lol

If I am correct they are tire valve caps.

Am I really the only one who can play the finally on the hardest difficulty, and with three negligent and artificially stupid computer players in addition? Even did it with that fething garden gnome on single player! ;D

Cheer guys,

As promised been doing a little bit of scenery, getting everything I have painted up in batches so enjoy:



Scenery by Fenris, Black cat games and Jed over at Antenociti's workshop and 1/50 toy pallets.



I swear I painted these before saturday night's Dr Who, though all I need is a few more primary colours and they're off to rule the gaxlaxy). ;)





Pallets, Blackcat bases bins and Fenris games concrete jersey barriers, for added realism I've added little lifting hooks which I think sets em off wickedly).

Drinks machines from Blackcat bases, not too bad a cast, a little air bubbles that here and there.



(Do like the nod to capitalism and the mega corp coke. :D).



Refuse bins: Blackcat bases.



Crates: Fenris.



Skips, Fenris.



Barrels and gas bottles done before and 'how to' posted earlier.

Anyway enjoy

The Commander

Fantastic stuff.  And very realistically painted.

This is the kind of items that make a table come alive....or stay dead, or whichever is appropriate! :-* :-*

They look great CV.  The pallets in particular are a nice, evocative idea. They look really good when there are so many of them.

I sprayed up a set of 8 spawn points last weekend using some similar bits and pieces (including the occasional bit that I traded with you), but I dont think that I will get a chance to paint them for a few weeks.

Re: the Biohazard canisters in the top right of the photo below:  I am assuming that you have them placed off centre on those bases for a reason.  Do you plan to use them as spawn points or something?  Maybe with a zombie or two to be attached later?

Those toy pallets are NICE - which toy store did you get them in?
