Nice! It really seems broken, but everything still looks new. Roll it in some mud, rinse a bit, then let the dust dry for a dirty ruin.

the materials are broken, but the buildings are not ruins. Im going for a more generic sci-fi look, not so much grimdark skull fetishist

undercoated with fluro linemarking paint zenithal sprayed over black and dusted with white


I blacklined them with a fineliner pen + silver/light grey edge highlights + gold bits, nice and quick







they happen to stack quite neatly into a larger structure, so i got that going for me, which is nice



If anyones interested in this set of terrain, ill be selling it off once im done painting it all as I dont actually play any wargames anymore

Those buildings look great, the colours really seal the deal

What kind of materials do you use for this? I spotted some old computer parts here and there (or at least, what I think are computer parts; I'm no Tech-Priest), but the rest is largely unidentifiable. I'm guessing that has something to do with a "Broken Garage Hole"?

cheers guys!

ezra, the parts are a variety of components from disassembled dvd players, vcr tapes, cassettes, floppy discs, modems, power supply units, computer mice and whatever else i had lying around

theres a few mdf pieces (grills, doorways etc) added for detail and scale which are leftover parts from cnc miniature scenery

Yup, the same Malika! If you remember me from back then, you might also remember the Ork ships and robots I made from e-waste.

I am tempted to delve into that again, I was very tempted to make a model of a hive city of all sorts of left overs from computers, pens, lighters, etc. Maybe I'll do it again, but then more related to this project.

I can't wait to see you also giving it a shot with interior stuff, so chairs, tables, desks, closets, computer panels, etc. Larger spaces might fit vehicles, how about some equipment to lift up vehicles for example, cranes etc. would be quite cool!

Thanks! Does the Infinity starter set include terrain? Personally I find your stuff to be more interesting than most of the terrain I've seen used for Infinity. Whilst their stuff is cool, it all looks like that generic CNC cut stuff, which lacks any real character. So please just keep on scratchbuilding your stuff!

Awesome, and inspiring.

Creative and well achieved use of (seemingly) random parts for a great result. Just keep disassembling if it is going to mean you'll assemble more of this afterwards

i managed to finish detailing the landing pad last night. Was a bit doubtful about it at first because it was just an experiment with the top and bottom of a dvd player flipped and reglued together

yeah it comes with cardboard terrain so i daresay a lot of people will be keen on something a bit more substantial

Wait is this a tower places on top of the landing pad? Well it could work I guess, but doesn't that defeat the purpose of a landing pad?

One thing that's kinda missing from these designs are the rivets. I mean, I know this stuff seems slightly more higher tech, so rivets might not be needed. However, the stuff does all seem to be scrapped and bolted together, so something along the lines of rivets and such might be fitting.

i like this stuff a lot, with less of a high tech/sci fi vibe it could work really well with necromunda, am sure i have some stuff that can be "recycled"

Wow I've got to paint my Infinity miniatures first, but if I can scavage some e-parts around here, I'm definitely looking into making terrain out of it. The painting you did ties everything together and very sci-fi looking.
Could you explain what the 'dusting' is? Did you spray the colour from a distance to get this effect?

Some rivets, spikes and skulls and it's perfect for Necromunda! Note that Necromunda had more of a cyberpunk feel than 40k has. So a lot more industrial and a bit less gothic.

yeah you guessed it, just spray from a distance, to get an overall light coverage that gives the illusion of a light source

I see it as all welded together. No need for rivets all the time. Looks great. Might have to go scrounging for some E-waste now.

Whilst the welded together look might work for Infinity, the 40k/Necromunda aesthetic seems to be more defined by vast amounts of rivets and skulls.

I am really digging this though!

By the way, what is that jungle terrain the figure is standing on?
