Weyland Yutani Reactor
« on: June 22, 2012, 10:11:09 AM »
Weyland Yutani has to have the nicest logo for any sci-fi company and it is damned easy to paint as well cause I keep painting it everywhere. This is the reactor dome from the Heljan set, coupled with a door from The Scene (  Doo1 ) which I realise now I have used upside down but this works just as well :) My standard concrete, with a tad more blue in that usual, and a nicely weathered green door. But not soo weathered to get all rusty this time. 15mm hovercar for reference, though the mat it is on should give you another clue of its size (1cm squares).





Did some more extensive leeching this time, and the shape means it is a interesting object to look at.

Game uses? Just scenery. Could be a objective, but since I stayed away from any radioactive or warning labels this could be a futuristic shed as well. Anything goes.

Looks great!
And it might just be another W-T storage area ;)

Very nice  8)

Just one question, why is the first level of leaching not in line with the moulding?

Cause the foreman winged the amount of concrete needed for that level and got it wrong. Of course, he blamed it on a labor droid that was subsequently scrapped. (basically I copied it off a old watertower and there the line wasn't even level.....and if it looks good)

Yeah, that's a "cold seam" between two separate concrete pours - a real no-no in structural work.

Looks great!

Weyland-Yutani cutting corners and working in a haphazard manner?  Say it ain't so!
