The 55 Cadillac is for sure well thats what sprang to my mind, have you considered hotwheels G machines and the Custom Classics range they are around 1/50 scale …..
I have a few well around 300 cars I could do a scale shot if you need and idea ….

Oooh ooh ooh - The sofa was mine! I've been trying to make a dumpster as well.
If you're still looking for ideas, something that I've been playing around with is a raised railtrack system. I feel like mass transit would exist on all levels of a hive (even if it is decrepit and abandoned, it must have had transport links at one point!) and with a bit of track stolen from model train kits it would serve as a nice centrepiece. Plus it could work over multiple levels, and would give you the chance to model a wrecked transport if you wanted! Just an idea, feel free to knock away if you don't like the sound of it

Quick question for you pro terrainers that frequent this cornocopia of inspiration and amazing conversation! when building terrain ourselves and it needs to be primed, does it matter if it's primed with a matt black spray or does it need to specifically be a primer? I've found some matt black at a local auto shop and as i need a bit of it I wanted to check with the ones in the know before i wasted my money! money that could be spent buying Nuka Cola!
Primer just gives your detail paint layers something to stick to. It depends on what the terrain is built out of, for most metals and plastics, any cheap $1 can of spray will do fine. You need proper primer only when the material won't take paint (or it will be prone to rusting), then you need to chemically bond or etch to something (like soft plastic- paint will stick, but when you flex it it just peels off) to allow the upper layers of paint something to stick to. Krylon makes a spray specifically for plastics that actually etches into the surface chemically and allows the bending without peeling.
For styrofoam, the propellant in the rattle can tank melts it, so you need to seal it first (the pva method sucks, not recommended), or use water-based spray paint, or just brush (or airbrush) any acrylic paint. This seals it.
Color of primer is only personal preference, I use flat black on terrain to help me cheat with shadow-painting later on, however with miniatures, or any terrain that will be painted a lighter, brighter color (like the nuka Cola machine), I use white. I also use white on miniatures, followed by a thin wash only so my dysfunctional eyes can see all the details.
Yep! Also, if you want a concrete texture, it's super easy just by mixing some fine sand into the paint (or Gesso)
Automatically Appended Next Post: @Vik- I waded through them, I think i'll stick with the cheap plastics for conversions, but at 8 Euros, I still think it would be cheaper to buy them from the US ebay, I also found some Mexican Marx knock-offs too. I will think on this some more, but thanks for all your work man, really appreciate it!
I haven't used it myself but my buddy uses it a lot and his stuff looks good. he is a douchebag though because he plays Tyranids and won't leave his unnamed forum to post here........
Thanks guys, I'll seal the styro if I use it and just blast away with some cheap spray when i get going, but I'll no doubt update my own blog when i start to record my mistakes and tribulations! :-) I just didn't want to pour time and effort into some terrain and then have it go to rubbish with the wrong stuff! this whole thread has been a massive help to me to make sure i'm not floundering looking for how to approach things to do with terrain, it's pretty darn inspiring and the way you do it all is great for someone like me to follow, i'm pretty crafty and plan things out to the nth degree before i start, so i've still got time up my sleeve to keep watching what you do before i begin!

Thanks man!
Automatically Appended Next Post: @nerdfest- the best thing about priming/sealing white foam with say cheap black acrylic craft paint is that you can easily see where you missed a spot- better to seal it by hand than let the spray paint melt the foam there. Oh, and don't bother trying to melt the foam with the spray can as an effect, it only looks like melted foam in the end. The same way that toilet paper tubes always look like toilet paper tubes unless you cover them with paper or plastic.

Dsteingass, could you tell me what kind of airbrush/rig you use? I own a compressor though not made for airbrushing, just a home depot comp. Can I strap any Abrush to it and go nuts?
Sure! As long as you have a regulator and a moisture trap. Don't just buy whatever AB you find (or you'll be discouraged). You first need to know whether you want a general purpose brush or a detail brush.
I have a Badger 150 for general purpose and a Badger Renegade Krome for detail. I use a 1.5HP/3 gallon tank -regular shop compressor. I added a second, digital regulator ($14 from Harbor Freight) to accurately dial the pressure down to 15-25 pSI)

We've watched the first season on pay tv. My fiance got all hyped and is currently reading all the books in a row.
It's a very well made fantasy series, the only thing that turned me off a little (being only able to watch one episode per week) was the negative, almost desperate vibe and all the intrigues and scheming. I'm certain that's less of a factor if you watch them in one go though. Nevertheless it's part of the design, the books seem to be the same. It's a cruel cruel world. Oh, no spoilers, but don't get to attached to the main characters, they drop like flies.
We are not all the way through the season yet, but the plot is thicker than gravy at this point. Have you ever wanted to see molten gold poured onto a Malfoy-type character's head? The last episode we watched had that!
The eight year old lord still on the teat disturbed me very much.
Ah, but there have been historic cases of such things. How do you think madness, inbreeding, cruelty and political machinations rife in history were so ? Royals/Nobles are all mad as hatters! Watched the whole season and am finishing the first book, this new season coming on April is basically the second book. Same sort of events from new character's POV. More of the multi-sided events going on.
Afterall, how else do Dark Mages take over a land? first they send waves of mind dulling insanity and stupidity out to the enemy, Wake up your long slumbering troops and prepare to march....I have not read the full series, and only going on the 10 episodes and I have extrapolated the patterns as to that is where it is headed.
dsteingass wrote:SO I work for Dark Mages??? That makes sense!
I'm sure those things did happen, but it still disturbs me.
Oh yes, any rational and somewhat sane man or woman would and should be disturbed by these antics. But sadly, knowing my history, I am actually not surprised.
And for all you game of thrones people, new series starts on April 1st in the USA (and hence everywhere for the moderately tech-savvy):
Spoiler:
If youve never watched it , do so. If youve never read the books, do so. Just finished the 5th book and its quite simply the best series ive ever read. The political intrigue and sheer scope of the whole thing is mind blowing.
Dave apocalyptic zombie war with Lego AMAZING !!!!
I have to say I was disappointed to hear that you had not created the painter I was amazed at the detail
However intrigued by you're collecting habits and your range of toys
Game of thrones is amazing I loved the first series just waiting for the second to start next month YAY!!!!!
The dog (wolf hound) killing and the incest is a bit on the dark side but hell these things did happen ( still do in some small towns and villages ) but the story is captivating and each episode left you wanting more( more than can be said of most shows )
I would stick with it, Peter Dinklage is by far the best character in this program and delivers great lines every episode, I just hope he does not get killed off
Thanks for the trailer it looks EPIC!!!!!! CANT WAIT

The firehouse has a rec room floor even, with a ping pong table.
I too am impressed with how far they have come with these, these sets are just too cool IMHO, great idea, sooo many uses.
They are all modular, so you can take out a floor, make the building smaller, or play inside the building rooms easily.
All of these buildings (except the Corner Grand Emporium- I bought that one) were gifts from my wonderful GF!
So, meanwhile, I buy and stock up on multiples of various parts through dealers at shows, or BrickLink, or even the rare occasion I get to the LEGO store in Indianapolis and get to use the Pick-a-Brick wall of joy. So I'll have enough bricks to construct my own modular buildings in the pattern of the official sets.
I've always been interested in stop-motion animation with LEGO, but I would need to invest in equipment instead of MOAR LEGO.
i think kits like these could very well mean a new renessance for lego...finally some quality for us lego nerds... not thse thinwalled plastic kits i had during childhood...

Tonight (if work does not make me homicidal today) I think I will be having my own Spring Cleaning in the mancave. I need to reorganize all my hobby tools and redo the painting bench entirely. I picked up a few more of the ever-so-useful bamboo spice racks from Wal Mart for my paint bottles. Right now I have some on racks, some on shelves, and some in a drawer. It would be most useful to have all my colors within reach, especially now that I have expanded my paint arsenal to include more airbrush paints.
