Supply Drop!

I went birthday Shopping!
Besides a metric ass-ton of the usual styrene I-Beam, girders, tubes and rods I found some O-scale double tread plating sheet, 1/2" square sidewalk sheet, ABS ladders, Square and rectangular tube, larger hex rod (MOAR RIVETS!) , but also a 1/72 scale US Civil War (or any era really) Munitions wagon and ambulance wagon set, Extra Thick gap-filling super glue (CA), box of 100 #11 blades, and a fresh tube of squadron green (ol' faithful), and a fresh jar of Plastic Weld (best glue for plastic, actually melts the two surfaces into each other). Ignore the prices, I get a discount I am a member of IPMS-USA in good standing. I also get free model kits as I write reviews on them from time to time.

What to build now??

No, I already have a store rack actually! but it is for long tubing, balsa, dowel rods, etc. These are all only 15" long a piece lol

Some interesting materials, I am stoked.

Once again, I say that you are a god of plastruct scratch-build. That is already amazing. Hyenajoe needs some of that stuff, if it was off-kilter a bit it would be so Orky that Mork himself would cry. Or was it Gork?

Fantastic work on every peice in this project.

Thanks Everyone! Your comments and suggestions of excessive riveting keep me going!

Bolts for the nuts!


It's not the water still, that will be a different project, this is just the support pylon for an elevated major walkway.

I absolutely love Necromunda, and the terrain you are making is incredible. Makes me want to make some for myself and for anyone who has seen my necro hoard they will tell you that I need no more industrial walk-ways. I would suggest that you consider making molds of your large nuts/rivets, even a good quick press mold would save you a ton of time (to reinvest into moar terrain).

For your next trick I would recommend a elevator similar to the outlanders kit.

Also are you basing these building on MDF or plastic?

I want to buy this so badly right now. I have molded polystyrene envy on top of rivet envy.

How have you built that in such a short amount of time??? All I've done is stab myself w/ my X-acto blade and trying to figure out why one wall of my current project seems shorter than the other one but they both measure out exactly the same.

Gah. I'm going to go have a beer and paint some zombies.

Well I slept in till 9:00 am, now it's 12:51 AM, I've been working on it all day. (I love saturdays) I am tired now, so I am going to bed, no doubt to dream of rivets. I leave you with the latest in photographs.
