15mm Space Station Zero and 5PFH -new spaceship walls 3/8

[Cat]

Well, that station will be worth shooting some blasters in!

Thanks, they looked good before the weathering and I thought I'd gone too heavy with the weathering, but it is meant to be a derelict spaceship.

Lovely.
That tied up the work nicely.
A job well done.
Thank you for sharing.

Earlier in the thread I made some simple vents and I forgot to post a picture of them painted.



And I've started working on some doors for around the edges of the board. The main piece came from a 28mm Sarissa Girder Bridge frame that I built for a commission. It is an interesting shape and its not something I would have scratch built. Most of the other parts are laser cut card pieces or the frame from Iliada Studio and a plasticard door.

very interesting shape indeed

After a lot of cutting and gluing the outer walls for my spaceship interior are finished. I followed the same style  and used the same materials as the standalone walls but added more vents and the doors shown earlier.

I'm very happy with these and the board is really starting to come together now the walls are built.





And in place on the board. I'll try to weather and maybe some damage to them, to match the floor once they are painted

You've been busy! Lovely work again.

That interior is amazing! 

A lot of work there but it is looking fantastic and I am sure you will enjoy gaming on that board.

Keep up the great work.

Your space station blows mine away -- thing of beauty! Almost too nice for a derelict, run-down Space Station Zerio (just kidding...I love it!  ).

Looking forward to battle reports!

Thanks, its been a bigger project than I planned but I hope to get a lot of use out of it.

thing of beauty!

That's exactly what I was going to say.

Excellent work.

I've been rereading Space Station Zero in preparation for my first game and I noticed there was a few more pieces of terrain to make.

One of the scenarios has 2 control panels - one intact and one broken, so I made a similar looking panel to the Khurasan panel I have.





Also the first scenario has 3 broken pipe markers so I made some markers to show the pipes that have broken through the floor. The pipe is hard to see because I used a clear plastic tube.




And finally I finished 3 more small walls pieces for some flexibility

That space dungeon is getting better and better

With the walls almost finished (still need highlights and weathering) I had some free time to try out my first game of Space Station Zero. It was the first game of the campaign and a learning game to work out the rules and make sure I had everything. I discovered that my crew design was not great, so I will redesign them and start the campaign again. I found a much better QRS (from the Facebook group) and crew roster after the game, as I found I was constantly flicking between pages checking on rules and the scenario and equipment during the game. So no AAR at this time, but a few photos instead. Also I found most of the scenery I've made so far was for specific scenarios and I was lacking generic scenery, and I raided my Star Wars Imperial Assault boardgame and a few pieces of 28mm scenery to help fill the table. And yeah, the walls didn't quite fit because some of the details by the corners meant they didn't sit completely flush.

Despite all this it was a great game and my half scale ruler from Litko was great, and the game looked really good and played well. I am looking forward to playing the campaign and all the work seems worth it.

I really enjoy this thread, so many great ideas for the scifi dungeon terrain!
