ever thought about doing a junction piece between the epic canals & the 28mm ones? Sorta like an open culvert draining into the main canal.

yeah,
I have loads of the canals and was hoping for some cross road and t junction shapes

I use my canals a lot.
Some of the best terrain i ever bought

Thanks Panic for posting your detailed pics: Helps everyone see how the 40k canal goes together.

The epic version is much simpler (due to the smaller size and lower cost) - The pavements join on to the side of the fluorescent plastic rather than sitting on top and locking in place.

However, it would be very doable to have:

T-Junction and X-roads for the 40k canal
40k to Epic converter piece that looks like a drain off of some sort.

UPDATE: The T-Junction and Cross Road for the Canal are done and will be proto-typed tomorrow. If all goes well they should go on sale on Monday.

Oh! as for the annoying bits of plastic cover you had to peel off: I remove them before shipping so you don't have to

The 40k bridges are available now:

As requested:

Very cool!

Yeah,
Boom!
Ordered one of each crossroad and t junction!
Thanks

Will resurrect the old thread when I paint them up

Panic...

Yeah,

Well bloody hell I am impressed!!!
4 days after saying I would like something that's not even been designed yet; it pops though my letterbox!

Amazing!



My only regret is my painting table has a proper long queue of projects...
I will have to make time!

Panic....

Glad you like it Panic

I was thinking about the canals and had some ideas:

Some sort of treatment tanks? You know those round tanks with the blades that go round you see at sewage treatment plants....like the below.

or some sort of pumping station that would span the canal? Again, like below...

Thoughts anyone?

Yes and yes.

yeah.
Sounds good!

Do you think you could design a insert for the G&G board?
The green area top right. it's meant to be a car park or filled with static grass.

But I think something that works with the canals could be great.

or something that goes ontop like the treatment tanks!

At the request of an Epic player...

Battle Damaged Epic (6mm) Roads are now available on http://www.honeybeeworks.co.uk

Pack contains 2x everything in the image for £8 (about $12)

I put a dark ink wash over the unpainted road sections just to make the detail stand out more.

Regards Monkey

By request I've made a version of the Epic starter road that has notches for 3mm x 1mm magnets. This allows the road sections to be firmly linked together. (We do not supply the magnets - they are available very cheaply on ebay).

Same price £8 (about $12) for the starter kit and available now on our website:

New. Completed the 28mm scale waste tank for the Canal System.

Imperial Waste Treatment strongly denies any link between it's waste tanks and mutations.

Available on our webstore now:

Comments on this new product and suggestions for others always welcome

yeah,
Looks great, it's an excellent design

I'd suggest one change and thats that the walkway and platform are not attached..
That way it can be optionally placed on the tank, in various places or left off.

Not a fan of the imperial waste logo either as it kinda ties the tank to 40k.

Panic...

Thanks Panic,

On the walkway and platform going in to the fluorescent; Yeah i considered that. I went through 2 prior prototypes where the holes just were too tight as i wasn't engineering in enough tolerance. I have got it right now but may change the design to do away with the sides going in to the fluorescent.

On the Imperial Waste logo - big sad face :( that took the bulk of the time! I dont really agree it ties it to 40k. Imperial is a fairly common term (especially for us brits! Imperial Leather isn't the soap of 40k ) and the winged bio-hazard : sure the wings envoke in us a certain 40k-ness (that was the idea) but there are also plenty of real logos and emblems very similar in RL that have wings like that.

If you want an order where the walkway/platform are not joined to the fluorescent, and with the imperial waste logos removed - let me know and i will do you some specials. It's easy to remove them from the cuts.

Will the Waste tank be done in 6mm?

Hi Notprop....that's what I am currently working on. Plan is to sell the waste tank, cross canal and 2 x T junctions as a 6mm set.

Yeah,

Sounds good. Will Send you a PM

6mm Canal Waste Treatment Tank and Junction set now available at www.honeybeeworks.co.uk

Smaller version of the 40k treatment tank just launched.

Features an optional/moveable walkway and island with a grate.

Included in the set are 2 canal T Junctions and X Junctions which are new additions to the 6mm scale canals.

Sold as a set of 1 waste tank, 2 T Junctions and a X Junction for £10.

Will post painted examples shortly.

I don't suppose you have any pics of your 6mm stuff with 10mm figures like Dropzone commander? Just wondering how well it would work

Canals will be fine they'll just be narrower both scales are usable with both. Roads would be more problematic and my guess is the buildings won't work well. Equally I've not seen them and I'm going by website photographs

I don't have any 10mm miniatures so the best I can do is a 15mm flame of war commando - hopefully if you imagine a miniature 2/3rds as tall

You are sem bleddy boy, thanks for that reply. Going to check out your website now

Colour photos of the 6mm canal waste treatment tank & junctions as promised

Nice one HBW's.

I shall be ordering a set of canals this week I think!

You might want to photograph them on another surface, I find the wood table makes it hard to see the green 'slime' canal.

This stuff is really cool.

Would it be possible to get the canals with blue instead of green?

Absolutely methebest....in fact i have an outstanding action for panic to post some pictures of some alternative materials/colours for the canal.

He is looking for ice...and i have found a frosted sort of clear/green/glass colour which should work well.

Also got a clear brown that will be a more dirty but not toxic colour.

There are some options around a clear water/light blue too....will post them tonight.

Kid_kyoto - noted...i will try to find a better colour/surface. I was photographing them on white which didnt seem great either....will experiment.
