Jesus christ it's perfect. Just needs the half-tire shoulder plate.

Brother Vinni does excellent work!

@Childe, no this building isn't any particular one from the game, just a mix of the general styles.

@dstein, galorn's right it is mesh I salvaged from the air filter in our broken stove top fan. (it broke before I salvaged =D) And yeah I think its galvanized.

@josh, Cheers josh =D

@Orlanth, Sorry buddy, I guess your praise will have to wait a while, I've got plenty of other things I'm planning before supermutants =)

lol dammit didn't realise you guys had gone on to a whole other page,

BTW just letting you know that I don't have the super mutant figure, it belongs to dsteingass, so you have to ask him about painting it =)

Ah fair enough... you should have said yes, you'd have more kudos points

Ah uh well in that case, its the little known biscuit factory =D

Here's the first addition of biscuit tray With muti-coloured basecoats:


I prevented them from crushing with use by supporting them with styrene and other light foam:

Nice use of the biscuit trays, and I love the face you thought about the support issue of the very flimsy trays. nice work dude!!!

U definatly like the trays used on the top of the building! Which reminds me.. I have some work ahead of me!

cool spartan!!! i like the fact that you´ve cut up the trays and how you stabilized those parts... the biscuit factory is truning out into a really good looking thing^^

Really nice use of, otherwise, overlooked materials!
... Looks like Willy Wonka is going to have to contend with your radioactive biscuits, along with their unique 'glow in the dark' feature!
Moving swiftly on, do you foresee any more miniatures in the pipeline?
But, whatever the next project, I am eager to see it grow!

I know everyone is going on about them, but the doors really are looking great!

Man I lost track of time between downloading minecraft and starting uni again. I haven't touched my terrain entry at all D=

But some of my best work s done when I'm rushed. Lets see if I can still produce a piece by the 4th




Cheers, also my bad for not updating.

Looking good. What's left to do on the terrain piece, or is it finished?

D

I've got to add rubble, walkway, fence and paint

That's cool man! Those would make great giant cogs too!

good point there dave!

and spartan... do hurry up^^ we need your input^^

Big update on terrain:

















Hope you like
I have submitted this piece into a dakka competition, click to see the other entries and find out who wins =D

Looks really good Spartan, well done.

Not sure how I missed this thread but fixed that now. Subbed!

Great work on that LoER contest piece. The weathering is fantastic. Really good work here throughout. Looking forward to seeing what you do next.

Looks great dude, I really like your use of the original packaging logos as signs...very clever and looks kinda New Vegasy in my mind.

R

Wow, the weathering is fantastic, and I love how you used the packaging! Kudos!

That's wicked. Did you cast the petrol can thing?

I agree with Mr Merlin, the weathering is fantastic!

D

i realy like that quiet athmosphere of that piece... and the lil details you did are so effective!!!

The jerry cans are from a tamiya kit called german fuel drum kit. http://www.hobbyman.com.au/T35186/TAMIYA-GERMAN-FUEL-DRUM-SET/pd.php
The set comes with 6 feul cans and like 2 taps aswell.

well... recently dave suplied me with thse bitz ^^ so i a lucky to soon have such lil details to star on my own stuff too^^

Here are some pit-inspired raiders that I made, using some pig iron heads:

Sorry the first pic must have been taken in a rush =S



Hope you like, will post painted pics soon
