Cheers


Here is the next build - I'm calling it a shop (of sorts). The brown sign at the front is magnetised and can be swapped out. I haven't figured out what to do with the sign yet.

Looks great so far. I like the little generator on the side to help break up the uniformity of the shape. What are you using for the sign magnets? I've struggled to find something that works - the magnets I have are either too small and fiddly or too large and too strong!

I'm just using rare earth magnets. (maybe 8mm diameter) I drilled holes so they sit flush on both pieces. Here's a photo of the front without the sign

Thanks guys

I've moved on to walls now to keep the population in, or the wildlife out! Also they have lots of lights so nothing shady goes on next to the walls.

These were constructed using 3 and 6mm forex, along with Mantic bases and some wooden dowel. I had lots of Mantic spare bases and I really like the look when they are all glued down.

Also I created two terminals, which are made from a Dungeons and laser piece, which sits on top of some random figure bases.
