My Gamma World/TNT Post-apoc (TNT Celtos conversions 20.8.2018)

Brilliant, it has really come together really well

Absolutely great stuff!

Good question, I am The shelves are attached/reinforced with "barbeque sticks" pushed inside the cardboard (thus not visible in the pic). There are four on each side. I am also afraid of mdf warping, but making the tiles from custom-cut acrylic boxes etc. would have been rather expensive (at least what I found).

If you have a hot glue gun, you could apply a strip of glue where the cardboard comes together (both glueing and reinforceing)
Or you could glue strips of these in your box and slide your boards directly on to them (no need for an extra cardboard) :

Thanks for the tip, zizi! Might do something like that to feel safer Thanks for the comments also.

Here is a TNT Caravanner Rocket Launcher guy (from LA miniatures "No Zone for Old Men"):'

This is for a warband I try to finish fast - there are some quick improvements (purple to the shadows, some "dirt" with brown") I'm considering, but I wanted to post this to show the direction I am heading + to learn some tips. Dunno if it looks too gritty. Base will get some grass.

[Mr. Peabody]

That looks mighty sharp!

[horridperson]

Well done.  A really characterful model and and an excellent paintjob.  Once you add your grass and weathering should "bind" him to his base and setting.  Reallt looking forward to seeing the finish on this one!

"Stay behind me. Let the boomstick do the talking" 

The details on that face  . He's definitly a winner.
He'd also make a fine commander for the Boomers in Fallout NV.

Thanks for the comments! I like the Rocket Guy figure myself, thus I finished him first

A second Caravanner, a crossbowman (Studio Miniatures Survivor):

This ended up looking even more clean than the previous guy - I think I'll do all the weathering at the same time when the warband is all painted... or not.

[Too Bo Coo]

Wow, super project!

Thanks for the comment

Been doing other stuff lately, but managed to finish one more caravanner (Hasslefree figure):

PIC

Pretty basic stuff (and bad lighting). I use green colour in all figures to give the band some uniformity. I've also made some counters (about 100) for TNT that are in the bottom right corner of the pic. They're two-sided lacquered printer paper on 20 mm clear bases. There are also some commercial ones (jammed and wounded).

This figure has popped up in a lot of people's Post Apoc collections and I had never really given thought to ordering it but ugh, your version is just lovely and may have just broken the camel's back.

Thanks for the comment! After posting this I painted the skirt in darker green as all the colours are rather light.

I think the main selling point of this figure is that it looks rather modest and ordinary compared to most available female figures. At least I do not want every post-apocalyptic female figure to be some kind of leather-clad bimbo, That she's reloading the shotgun is a also nice touch.

Then you must love these :

Yeah you're probably right, I very much try to avoid those kinds of figures.

Those are a bit too cartoonish! Ok the one of the left is funny, especially for an apache-themed warband...

The next lady, a leather-clad bimbo!

Could return to colour saturation and a few edges, with Hasslefree figures one always gets a feeling that one should put in more effort.
