Subject: Gothic Sentry Tower - A custom bastion for my marines
If any of you has visited my P&Mblog on this forums, you will already know I have finished the custom bastion I built for my Marine chapter. I started with cardboard pieces decorated with putty sculpts and casted these pieces in resin. The result was a modular system allowing me to create a wide range of buildings, suitable for both Fantasy and 40k.
In fact, this building is way bigger than a standard bastion (it's about 11.5 inches tall), but I always felt the Games Workshop bastion was too small.
You can watch me dryfitting the pieces of the tower on this video:
And you can watch me assembling the painted pieces of the tower in the following video, including some extra configurations for bigger buildings near the end of the video:

Seconded, these would make a great alternative Bastion for Sisters of Battle, Black Templars, Dark Angels etc etc, or a lovely chapel/cathedral setpiece. Me wanty.

"The language of modern British politics is meant to sound benign. But words do not mean what they seem to mean. 'Reform' actually means 'cut' or 'end'. 'Flexibility' really means 'exploit'. 'Prudence' really means 'don't invest'. And 'efficient'? That means whatever you want it to mean, usually 'cut'. All really mean 'keep wages low for the masses, taxes low for the rich, profits high for the corporations, and accept the decline in public services and amenities this will cause'." - Robin McAlpine from Common Weal

I would be interested as well.
I am selling these indeed. I have alredy sold three tower kits, and I am willing to sell some more, if anyone is interested. Shipping costs from Spain may be an issue, though. I am also open to selling customized kits, in order to assemble your very own building design.
I am selling these for 50 euros, plus shipping (from Spain). The bigger building you see in the video can be yours for 90 euros plus shipping. For any other custom combinatios, just PM me, and we will make a deal.
