Constable's Fallout/SSS Project - *NEW Church and Cottage p24

Some beautiful stuff here, but I have to ask - where is the moisture condenser from?  Did I miss it earlier in the thread? 

Well spotted sir. The condenser and the fish tank scrub is new! The robot just wanted his piccy taken

Great stuff Matt 

Thanks Steve, I said they would get a smart paint job. Thanks for the figures.

That pistol toting officer, what's with his face? Is he a vampire or is he sticking out his tongue? I painted it as a tongue. 

Excellent work! I'm definitely stealing the over-sized cow idea, and I love your various vehicle/terrain pieces. Keep up the awesome work!

Thanks, a pack of toy cows aren't too expensive go for their juggular with a hobby knife

I shall try.
Matt.

Wilco    I'm working in 15mm though, so I'll have to wait to get my hands on the Pegasus boxed set or something.

[Constable Bertrand]

Ah, a smaller scale, you could try adding some GS girth to a horse

[Constable Bertrand]

Hey all, you've probably seen (and if you voted <3 ) this in the build something thread, but heres my new addition to Post Apocalyptia, the run down 9th District









The cardboard forge was pretty simple, but the coals and LED lighting was a little trickier. I hid the batteries in the nearby shanty. The roof pops off so I can replace batteries and turn the forge on.

[Silent Invader]

I like it a lot!

This is great the glowing coals are a master stroke.

[Mason]

Absolutely brilliant.
So much to find and gawp at.
Wonderful!
 




And: Yes, I DID vote for it.
It is gorgeous.
 

[OSHIROmodels]

Works a treat mate 

cheers

[Constable Bertrand]

Thanks guys.

Thank you especially!

This is great the glowing coals are a master stroke.

A stroke that's not mine, I shamelessly stole it from another contestant.

And due to the fact that I didn't have a resistor on hand, there is no resister just 2 LEDs wired directly to one battery each. This way they flicker out of sync.

It also means the roof is detachable, along with the forge so I can access the LEDs to replace them if they burn out. Though that will be a fiddly soldiering job 

Cheers
Matt.

Great!  Now tell me where you got it, ye wee bastiche!

[Constable Bertrand]

Have an old fax lying around or on the sidewalk?
The center spool is a paper roller
The gear from the internal gizmos
The 68 is a tamiya sprue number tab
some styrene rod
And a bracket below the number is some other bit,

Not a very helpful "wee bastiche" am I?! 

Cheers
Matt

[Sinewgrab]

Hmmm, really.  We are getting ready to throw out the fax/copier at work.  Time to 'office space ' that baby and rummage the corpse for bits!

[Dr Mathias]

Great details and execution, I love the little bench vise. Wow!

[Constable Bertrand]

I picked up some scenery from an o gauge eBay seller. A pot stove (not used yet) anvils, vice, spanners and tools. They are nice and size well. And provide a little detail. I plan on building some other stuff and making a mold - but not yet.

The bottles are painted stretched sprue. They turned out ok for free.

Cheers
Matt.

That's a good idea!

Great scene all around.
