Hello again, I've been out of the scene for a while but I'm still alive, but I have a back-log of stuff to put up on this board.
Here's one of those. Picked up 2 laser cut Sarissa quonset huts. The roof is "OK" but only barely, so I covered that with corrugated plastic sheet to make it look more realistic. I have DELIBERATELY OVER-WEATHERED (hint there is no such thing) the buildings. Take a look at some real ones online some time. They're REALLY rusted out and thrashed if they've been abandoned for years and years, which is completely appropriate and even expected for a post-apocalyptic setting. New looking quonsets just wouldn't look right.
I used the salt-and-hair spray masking method, dry-brushing, and pastel chalks to rust these bad boys out.
So here's the breakdown:
1 - 3 Building number one, thoroughly rusted out with moldy doors and grafitti. I also put a model railroad chimney on this one as these buildings typically had a basic heater to combat the drafty cold that inevitably seeps through metal sheds.
4-6 Building two, a little less rusty, but still trash. The back features not only a model railroad chimney to combat the freezing cold, but it also has a window air-conditioning unit to combat the 120 degree sizzling heat of the desert in a completely inadequate way.
7 & 8 This is a magnet-based storefront that will attach to building #2 to give a little variation. Corrugated overhang, PSP plating walkway. Style reminiscent of old west buildings of the American southwest. Will make a good small outpost, gas station, country store, what have you.
Enjoy.
