Adventures in the Rad Wastes and Cursed Earth

[spevna]

 A while back I made a load of buildings for a sci fi shanty town, but had no surface for them.

I'd started working on something ages ago, but never got round to painting it.

I got a couple of spare hours at work today, and decided to get it done.

I SIMPLY LOVE IT!

LA should have a "Like" Button for work like this!

[warburton]

Nice! Why can't I do stuff like that at work?

Cheers lads 

Making it was pretty simple really.

1. Nail cheap plywood board to leftover bits of wood for strength and support.
2. Glue foam board/blocks onto plywood sheets to look like ruins.
3. Swirl modeling plaster around the surfaces in groovy patterns and directions.

That's basically how I made it.

Painting was a little bit if a pain.

1. Look for black acrylic paint in my office, and find none.
2. Pop down to the local 100¥ shop and buy loads of calligraphy ink instead.
3. Apply a liberal mix of water, pva, and black ink to everything.
4. Frantically clean up after, and spend 30 minutes wiping up ink.
5. Dry brush with crimson, red, orange, light orange, yellow, pale yellow.


I still have a few things I'd like to add.

1. Water tower
2. Watchtower
3. Chain link fence for the scrapyard


I've got two games coming up soon, one JD and one 40K. They'll be in a couple of weeks so I'll be sure to snap some pics then for you all.


Cheers for all the kind comments.

[Sangennaru]

Thanks for the explanation!

However, with some closer looks that would be even easier to understand the process! Just some pics of the finished peices! ^_^

[spevna]

Yep, I promise to get some pictures ASAP 

Everything has been packed away,so the next time I take it all out I will be sure to get lots of pics,

[Suber]

That is absolutely great!

[spevna]

Cheers man.

Can't wait to get a game in on the bloody thing!

You Tube is crying for a quick drone flyby. 

Agreed, more and closer piccies, especially populated by the dead and dying.
