Gunbird travels the Wasteland (17-8 Changes!)

Awesome stuff!

AAargh, I gotta come up with an excuse to have to make postapocalypse terrain like this.
It's so cool looking and looks like so much fun to make....

[Gunbird]

Zis, the paper is torn and folded away in front of the shack. Maybe there is a hole.....  (and a figure can actually stand on the shack and look over the top of the board. Room enough.)

Sinew, I've never painted an Ork/Orc so I'm a bit anxious to try one. Got any good tutorials on their skin?

Thx guys. Bit stuck right now on the projector booth and the food stall....hadn't realised they tend to be 2 story structures in one. The bit that I need for the speakers is still elusve but I'm sure my bag of Space Marine Vehicle bits will yield the correct item I think, and then I just need to cast 40 or so. Currently sketching out the line up for the display and what movies to go on... still looking for a few good Atomic Horror titles

The Board is awesome Gunbird! Glad to see your new love to coffee make such great results^^
I´m really impressed every time about your many little details you bring in your terrain. I hope I will achive this level in my vault some time.

[rollawaythestone]

I second Deltadog's comments! All those little details are really lovely and make your pieces stand out!

[Gunbird]

Work is slowed down to a trickle while my antiobiotics have kicked in (I have the worst of luck these days).


Black Cat Bases fire hydrants. Not the best, not the worst, good enough. Next.

Something that really cheered me up was my package from DELTADOG!


....for which I will do a review and hopefully painted versions really soon!

And now I'm back to bed.

May the health be with you! I wish a fast recovery

Looks like DELTADOG will be getting some of my money...

Sorry to hear that you're not feeling well, Gunbird, and I hope you get better soon.

Like everyone else, I have to say that the drive-in screen looks amazing, and the little hut at the back gives it cool playability to go with its total thematic fit. Your billboards look terrific to. Definitely have to steal that idea. And those Cars toys look amazing, especially the second one with the fins. Perfect Fallout model.

Thx guys, I'm hanging in there. Only managed to finish the varnish and basing of these today and tried to start some more and bigger wreckage. Also have a offer to make a deal for 8 Marx cars for 10 euros that Kim said I can do so I will add those to my painting list soon. Deltadogs stuff has priority but I want to do it right and I'm really not clearheaded right now.

It's a pity it ain't a tricyle, but what can you do (other then convert one). Looks sad enough as it is.

Letterboxes and kids bicycle by Black Cat Bases. The bike is exteremely roughly cast, with extra metal bits everywhere from mould wear, mould slippage and plain bits missing. No pedals even. The letterboxes have caved in sides from when the metal cooled but that actually helps with the beat up look! Did my best to make it....interesting!

  where did you find a deal that good?? Wow. Glad to hear you are keeping your head up on the health front.

Well, I post on the Dutch Wargamers FB group cause I might demo the game at a event in 2017 (IF I can keep my focus) and a chap mentioned the Marx cars as being great for me. When I countered that with the high cost per car on Ebay (and on this forum - 15 dollars per car!) and me having a monthly budget of 25 euros he said he had bought 80 of them for 150$ years ago and could spare me 8 for a tenner. Can't say not to that, cause that plus the Cars cars I'm working on should be enough for my max sized board (won't go bigger then 122 square for this, 90 square preferred)
