A post from you is a nice Christmas present to us all. Amazing amount of detail and story in your piece as usual

Loving the butcher shop, fantastic stuff.

Thanks for the kind comments as ever.

Latest element in my Lady Scrappers crew is the Scrap Monster. A rusting, retro-fitted hulk of overloaded firepower. Perfect for sitting on top of those salvage sites that require just a bit more work.

Awesomeness, can you tell me what was the base model for that? I mean the scale.

Thanks Oshii, the base model is a Tamiya 1/48 Abrams, with bits from Crooked Dice (Scooter and some stowage), TT Combat, Tiny Furniture and Ramshackle Games.

Thank you for info, 1/48 fits perfectly for 28(32)mm models indeed.
I was watching your blog here from a long time, you are doing really great work, it's very inspiring not only for me I think.

Brilliant work on that Abrams! All those details really tell a story. My favorites are the scooter and that Vault-Tec box.

Thanks all,

Much appreciated. next vehicles already in the works!

That is a fantastic tank. i wonder how they keep it fueled and loaded in the post apoc wastes.

Thanks for the continued encouragement all.

Latest Lady Scrapper stuff to round out the crew. A new quad bike, an outrider (scout) and the Tug, a ton of pulling power equipped with hydraulic rams and electromagnetic clamps to shift salvage around out in the wastes.

Nice work oncall. Particularly like the chain and clamp for the tug.

I can't decide between the tug and the scout as which one is the best in the bunch, so tug wins (it always does). Very nice and balanced mix of paint, panel lining and weathering!

A few pics of my abandoned satellite array, using a comms dish made by Uncertain Scenery on a tower scratch built using bits from TTCombat's Necromunda range. Lots more pics on the FB page.

Another amazing piece!

Great scenery, although same base color adds here to the MDF problem of "everything has the same thickness". But that's just my envy speaking.

love all this stuff

Wow. Just wow, your stuff looks too realistic sometimes

Second radar, also from Uncertain Scenery (the tower was made by someone else but I can't remember who). Again MDF, tethered using salt and hairspray plus oils and powders.

First photo of the first one I thought was a real one out in Russia somewhere.....

Now that is a proper color diversity! Congratulations!

Been a long time since I last posted. I've been working on a large aircraft hangar for my Junktown settlement. The hangar has been converted for use as a vehicle repair shop. I'm still working my way through it and it's not completely finished, but I've done enough to show some pics here. Most of the pics are taken with the roof off, but I've taken a few 'atmosphere' shot with the roof on.

See what you think.



















































Lots more photos on the Facebook page - Junktown - https://www.facebook.com/Junkt0wn/

This is high artisttry, but how could you DO such a thing to the SHADOmobile? CRUELTY!

Shadomobiles are made to be kit bashed







I once even put wheels on one!

Does roof still flip over though?

Sadly not. Sacrificed content for style.

Well you've certainly done them justice in their new roles. The whole junktown setup is totally amazing. And rusty. But mostly amazing. Which is amazing in itself given the sheer amount of rust

Wow, that's twice now that I think you're starting your post with a photo of a real life thing you used as inspiration. Beautiful continuing work on Junk Town. Any group shots of a majority of Junk Town set up on the horizon?

Just starting to think about how to incorporate the hangar into a larger board, so I hope so, but it's quite a big undertaking.

Amazing work. Thought the hanger was a photo for inspiration at first . Love all the bits from different manufacturers in the shelves.

Has a very District 9 feel to me.

This blog is utterly amazing. I just read every post start to finish and I’m blown away. My jaw is still hanging open. There were several times that I thought you were posting a photograph of a real world object to use as inspiration only to realize it is your model! I can’t compliment you enough. This is some of the best stuff I have ever seen on dakka.

I hope someday you will show us photos of the fully completed Junktown all together.
