-ROCKETMAN-

[moif]

Hello everyone. I've been lurking for a while, reading other peoples threads and enjoying the images, and now I've decided to post some of my own. Rocketman is a skirmish wargame campaign I run with my friends. Its set in the 1930's, and bordering on alternative history. I also have a Rocketman blog if any one is curious.

So far my friends and I have played five campaigns and I am currently preparing for a sixth. Campaigns vary from two to five games each. All the images here are from the third campaign.


Rolls Royce armoured cars, from Copplestone Castings




This is a model of the converted International Mk VIII tank, from the film 'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'. The model is a toy made by Disney but is no longer produced. I have two of them but the second is not yet fully converted to a wargaming element.


Bolshevik 'Black Guards' with antagonist Viktor 'The Iron Czar' Korsakov.


Generic Bolsheviks



Isometric game maps. I usually draw all my game maps like this, though most are black and white.


A watch tower with removal roof. Click here to see the model without roof.

Here are some images of ruins I have made for the next Rocketman campaign.

Nice work, I've had photos of your ruined buildings in my 'Inspiration' folder since I first saw them on TerraGenesis.
Welcome to the forum

Thanks matakishi. I like this forum. It has a lot more of the type of games I like.

And finally (for now) a few more models from the fourther Rocketman campaign;


A tramp steamer (unweathered due to time constraints) made of carboard.


A crashed aircraft (Arado) with giant mushrooms (made from a modelling putty called FIMO)


A secret lair/HQ, made of cardboard, unpainted, for a single evenings game. The model has subsequently been cannibalised to make more ruins.



A German merchant U boat (Bremen) under attack by Rocketman and some Brazilian militia, on the Amazon river. I'm the guy in the grey T shirt BTW.

Great stuff!

[Captain Blood]

Yes - very nice all round 

[comet5]

Very nice indeed, I'd love a ship like yours.

[Pentaro]

Lots of great stuff, those Rolls Royces are amazing. The FT-17 in the ruins, is it a 1:32 model?

[moif]

The FT17 is 1/48 scale. I bought it from Gasoline, but it was rather expensive alas.

Outstanding stuff! 

Consider your mushroom idea well and truly stolen.

Oh, and welcome

Awesome stuff!  A comprehensive vision and beautiful down to the details...

Very nice work.  Your blog looks like it'll be a good read, too.

Love the isometrics.  Any particular programme you use? I have most of the ProFantasy (including Perspectives Pro), Dundjinni and Fractal Mapper applications but haven't really sat down long enough to get comfortable with them.

[Doomhippie]

Really great pics and ideas. I love your models, ruins, ships, everything. This looks like a lot of fun. Gotta start stealing some ideas and get going with some project on my own...

[dodge]

do you have a how I made this?

very inspiring

You have some pretty great stuff there. What do you use the isometric game maps for. They are very interesting. By the way, your miniatures and terrain modelling are fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
