SAFE Fortress WIP! Oh dear! What am I doing? In place kinda?
« on: February 10, 2016, 01:07:24 PM »
I was taking a break from adding to Jaffa. Then one of the guys gave me 2 polystyrene bits. He thought I could use for something! :o

I decided to start a new project for my generic SHED force! Here's what is going on so far!










Again with the Jaffa Cake boxes, Dominoes, Heroclix bases, Army men plastic bits and Poundland cheap plastic bits!

The two pieces that have octagonal bases are what really started me off! I just loved the shapes! But I have no idea what they came from? I'll have to ask the Mad Doctor!

I still want to add bits and pieces here and there and make the whole thing very modular. But where oh where am I gonna store it???!! lol

Looks nice. And I think I have to store the idea of using HeroClix bases in the back of my mind.

How did you make the surfaces? Looks like some kind of tape...?

Hi Thanks.

I use address sticky labels to cover the objects/boxes and then paint over it or pva then paint over it! (Depends on the labels sometimes!)

This link is to my Jaffa city and hopefully the page that shows some bits being processed.

It gives a slight relief effect which I kinda like. ;)

Thanks! The Pulp partwill become a bit more apparent! I hope!

Very nice. I really like the colours on these.

Would you believe? Testor Paint Pots for £1 each then a dry brush with miniature paints 8 Blue Grey and finally liquitex parchment artist acrylic! Which I love!

This looks good...........................

I sense a "But....!?" Coming here?

SHED is my generic force. I can use them throughout the timeline! (At least in my mind!!)
Think Like S.H.I.E.L.D or S.T.R.I.K.E from Marvel comics.

I will try to build a more convincing base from the components..once I hae figured out what it should look like! lol o_o

Good stuff-the sticky label idea is a good one. I may steal this for future projects ;)

Here's the situation on the table at the moment! With the previous SAFE bits dotted on as well!

Out of focus a bit!  :o But so am I! o_o

Bit in the middle.

You can see the SAFE sections and the Ultron Sentries here!

Just another view.

More of the same.


I have laid out a kinda Harbour style layout leading toward the SAFE wall and Strongpoints. I may add more to it just to go bonkers! lol o_o

Thank you Mr Phipps. :)

Though if I could get my hands on one of those 3D printers! Wow!

What a mess I would make :-X
