You may remember the mobile home I painted: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/343814.page

Well, I have expanded the trailer park, finishing a couple of dumpsters, a sign guess where it is from!) and a second mobile home. I'll have pictures later this weekend of a VERY expanded trailer park as I have contracted out several other pieces which came out great. For now though, here are some pictures of the stuff I finished this week:









Thanks for looking.

Jake

Not enough beer cans in those dumpsters my friend. Love the detail.

Awesome stuff!

Nice work! although now it kind of makes me inclined to make a trailor park battlefield for 40k, and I would even put Britney Spears on a lawn-chair holding a can of Budweiser as dangerous terrain!

...lol, Awesome work.

Remember, if a blast template scatters onto one of the trailers, on a 6, it's a meth lab and blows up! (STR 5, AP 5, large blast, remains dangerous terrain)

Large blast? More like Apocalypse large blast, assuming its a meth lab large enough to take up a considerable portion of the trailer.
Anybody within a 1' radius of the blast requires decontamination by turn 5 or they suffer 1 wound.

Pretty awesome so far! :p

That's some creative terrain. The dumpsters are a nice touch, though I'd expect to see a corpse in there. I especially liked the tarp being used to cover the hole in the roof. The bricks as weights are great.

The corrugated iron could use some paintwork, otherwise I like it.

Love it all, great detail!

Be careful what you wish for. In a trailer park that shady, if there was a corpse in it, it would probably be a baby. Afterall, I don't see one of those rediculous "no babies" signs on the side.

Be careful when you talk about baby corpses, the internet is not too good a place for Dead Baby jokes.....

Those trash cans are so realistic they look just like the one I left the evidence in... you never read that... besides the evidence that looks great expect for the American flag... 38000 years into the future i'm sere that the USA would have been destroyed by BENDER all ready...

I think this is awsome, you dont see much creativity with terrain, so its a bit of a treat.

Ya gotta make a Sunnyvale Trailer Park sign, too. Great work!

Naaah, just a little one for personal use and some minor-league sales to other trailer park residents. Remember, they're not living in a trailer park because they are life's winners, after all.

LOL, Love the trailer park and dumpsters great job.

I don't think these are for 40k, more likely for something modern like Ambush Alley.

Still looking for suitable cheap cars to dirty up and put on blocks, some pink flamingos, and I need to get a urban mat, BUT here is the Tophet Meadows Trailer Park, in all its glory!

I had bought the Plasticville Hobo Jungle and Trailer Park in O Scale and sent them along with a couple resin pieces to Sabol Studios ( http://www.sabolstudios.com/ and his pictures which are better than mine here: http://www.sabolstudios.com/redneck-utopia )


A bunch of pictures here: http://s247.photobucket.com/albums/gg134/CptJake_Minis/MobileHome/Full%20Trailer%20Park/













Sorry for the poor lighting. I'll try to get some better ones this week.


Jake

Those matresses could use some soiling. They look like someone tossed out brand new ones

That is awesome!

Dude... pure win.

I wouldn't mind playing 40k on that, mind you. Great stuff.

Some of the matresses are soiled:





This has more pictures of some of the detail pieces. http://s247.photobucket.com/albums/gg134/CptJake_Minis/MobileHome/Trailer%20Trash%20details/

I still have some toilets, some easy chairs, and assorted other items to get primed and painted.

Jake

There are the soiled mattresses we've been looking for!

that is awsome. now all you have to do is make a trailer trash ig army

OK you are getting there. You don't need too much more.

A few things missing:

Tied up dog with one of those circle running paths because of the length of his chain.

A car needs to be on blocks.

Motorcycle parts with grass growing through them.

NASCAR references.


Also if you do any source lighting or use actual lights, I would suggest some sort of UV light coming from a few of the trailers.

I'm trying to find a cheap 1:43 or so scale car to put on blocks. I have a few dogs, but they will end up on slot bases like other figures.

I may try to turn that American flag into a NASCAR banner... Good idea!

Jake

You have some pretty awesome terrain there. All of it is truly inspiring. Great work.

What games do you play using the terrain, or is it more for show?

I'd love to play one of the various Zombie survival/skirmish games on the market with this terrain!
