BSC2022 McMordain's placeholder restingplace

[McMordain]

Made some progress on the ground floor rooms. Well one room and a pair of sleeping tubes...




The first floor will have two small rooms. I will decide how to continue after I'm done those.
Also to make the lower parts more game friendly, I decided not to glue down the container. I will instead use some magnets to keep it in place, which will make it possible to move it if there is some action in the ground area.

Love it so far.

Great work. Where did you find those ladders?

[Blackwolf]

That is flash

So sweet to see this happening. Loved that scene in Blood of Heroes and always thought it was a near perfect visualization of Necromunda, I've been considering making something like this myself for years

Looking ace so far!

[McMordain]

Sorry about the lack of updates, I was swamped with work and didn't have any energy to build. I will be free this weekend and on next Monday though, so I plan to finish the build part soon. Then I can start butchering it with my painting skills...

Great work. Where did you find those ladders?

Thanks. The smaller one cames form the Zone Mortalis Platforms and Stairs box, the bigger one is from one of the sector mechanicus kits.

Thank you guys! I will try to not disappoint by not finishing it 

[McMordain]

Here is my progress of the last few days, still slower pace than I would like. Nowhere near finished

So anyone remember when I said I will not make a working side door for the container? Yeah, me neither


When up it's held by a magnet.

And the winch mechanism, not yet glued in place, because of painting.

And the state of the wall part:

The platform on the far right will get a simple canopy. And it still needs at least two more levels...

I probably spend more time on thinking how to build it so I can take it apart for painting, than actually building it
I will have this weekend free as well, so my next absolute deadline for finishing the building is Monday. Whatever state it will be on next Monday, that's it.

That’s coming on fantastically 
Love all the little details

[Codsticker]

I agree- the little details are great.

[McMordain]

Progress! 


The left side room, with a bunkbed...




... and in its place.


The double room in the middle, still needs a roof. I will probably place one more room on it.


And how the whole thing looks at the moment. There is still a lot to do but I'm pretty sure I can finish the build tomorrow.

[Vanvlak]

Really cool and inspiring too. 

[McMordain]

The build is mostly complete, all is left to add rivets and bolts and some damage here and there.


The finished top rooms.



All this time I was thinking what to do with the wall surface. As it is it lacks texture.
Then I found AK's concrete diorama texture in our shop and I made some tests. I liked the results so I put some on the actual build as well. It gives the walls some nice (and much needed) texture.
What do you guys think?

Cant wait to see this all painted up 

The concrete texture stuff looks great, my first hought seeing the picture was "how's he done that?"

Don't expect much, with my terrain painting skills, it will most likely be a downgrade  But I will do my best

I am hoping for a bright colour & not too in the future there is only grey 
I think the pink looks really good
