I love your stuff! The Hive buildings are very cool, the Orange Imperial sign from the Predator needs some dirtying, it's a hive city, it's dirty and dank, someone's gonna mess with a bright orange sign. The BB pitch holds a lot of promise, keep posting pictures of it, it looks like it'll be pretty cool when it's done!

Hey Granesh thanks!

Actually all this stuff is still to be painted!

The orange sign came from a second hand predator!

Usually buy most of my bits second hand, get lots at a time.

Keep posted for painting though!

Hope you enjoy.

Was going to start painting the acid bath but couldn't resist just putting some extra detail on.

Quick overview of bits added:

The fan grills on the inside of the acid bath are from that predator.

The little orange bits on the ends are also just bits cut from the parts of a predator, bit of thought and patience and you can cut thin strips of plastic from any bits of flid, and make up bulkheads that look a bit more solid and believable. Careful cutting of plastic is advised. Always cut away from your fingers remember.

Wise terrain builder say waste nothing.

The bits of rail on the top of the bath are the clippy bits from the top of a necro bulkhead (where they slide together).

Those little round bits are sprue.

Should have better sight of the skeleton and the fan, they will be the only bit in the bottom not painted black, to let the real water have depth (and hopefully the green will refract light better) and let them be more striking as they pierce through the water. (Ie bone and metal against black with a green tint, hopefully look nice!)

The tank and funnel are bits from city of death and old 40k bits.

Will DEFINATELY start the paint next, very happy about the detail now.

Hope you enjoy!

Pitch Update: Guardrail close up's.

Again the good old cocktail sticks, and some modelling barbwire, my friend gave it to me, so no idea where it came from sorry.

I used an elf to show where the crowd might linger.

I'm loving this right now, when this is finished, and I play a game of blood bowl on a 3D pitch, I will fulfill a twelve year ambition.

Hope you enjoy (as much as I am making it!)!
