Thanks all  :-*

Nice work on the shack.How many more do you have planned?

I'll be staying on SF for a little while I think. So at least a couple more buildings in this style.

This one is useful, but seems to lean more towards Post Apoc than straight SF.
Here is something I would like to see:  An unmanned one shot landing pod that is dropped from orbit  in hundreds (thousands?) all over a planet that forms a supply cache and emergency shelter  for geologists/explorers.  For instance they could be dropped in a line 25 miles apart. What they might look like I am not sure, as thinking about it landing legs and retro rockets might be a waste....could be just a half buried capsule with a parachute...
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

I think that's a very good idea Vodkafan, and I think a unit like that could form the core of a great little settlement as the pods are scavenged for parts, transported to one place and attached together etc. There would be a nice sense of ragged coherence to a town made up that way. I think that the world I have in my head that has inspired the SF stuff I have made so far is not quite so rational though!

Added this to my wishlist, great stuff. Is it a single piece mould excepting the door? Also absolutely love your historical beehive buildings and wish I had an excuse to buy them...

I co-sign the suggestion re: the landing pod, perhaps converted into a little survival shelter.

Thank you Angus! The walls are one piece, the roof lifts off, the door and doorstep are separate and you get two air-con units as well.

These are taking an age to paint up, so thought I might tease them here in the warm waters of LAF. I've since done a little 'gate' for them so you can make up a little scrap fort as well as blocking off streets etc.
