Gunbirds S.T.A.L.K.E.R. project (17/8 - Crossed out)

[Kourtchatovium104]

Can't wait to see it painted! 

[Pattus Magnus]

Yes, it already looks quite good! All of the paint jobs so far have been excellent, so I’m quite excited to see how this turns out. This whole project is inspiring.

Thx guys,appreciated! 

After questioning my sanity to glaze the next building with tiny squares of glass (which took about a week of thinking...) I decided to cherish my sanity, do the final detailing and call it a day. Plenty of other stuff to finish for this build and I really need not chastise myself too much like that with a gazillion tiny squares of glass.

On with the next!

 1st of the set of bunkers for the perimiter. I wanted this one to be a bit wilder in looks but also serene. It is from the Sarissa set of 3 Pillboxes, "British Pill Box Set N089". Simple, easy to build, looks the part.

Tufts used from various sources, mostly Greenstuff World this time. Hope you like!

"To the Stalkers Perimiter Bunker 1.06 is known as the Icon Bunker. Its door is always open for those in need of a dry place to rest, and exudes a calmness not often encountered in the Zone."

Looking absolutely great. It really has a lot of character 

[Kourtchatovium104]

Very evocative buildings! 

[Ultravanillasmurf]

Very nice.

Looks appropriately abandoned and weeded over. Love it!

Lovely work on those buildings.  Well done!

[Freddy]

Great additions!

[Pattus Magnus]

Yeah, the painted versions of the buildings look excellent, great weathering to give them a post-apocalyptic look!

First of all your builds are stunning. 

After questioning my sanity to glaze the next building with tiny squares of glass (which took about a week of thinking...) I decided to cherish my sanity, do the final detailing and call it a day.

One quick option on small windows like that would be Testors clear parts cement.  If you cover all the window edges using a cocktail stick, you can then swirl the stick around the edges to create a bubble inside the frame.  That will dry clear.  As long as you don't overload the edges with too much glue it will look just like a real pane.  Here is a link to show the basic technique.

Now THAT is dedication! Creating each individual window pane...!

I'd do it

Good idea! If only I had time...
