Hmmm that medic is very promising, interesting !
The greenhouse is gorgeous, however I feel it still says plastic box. Maybe painting the lower trim would help ? Still, top notch realization !

Thanks KernelTerror! I understand your point; I've been thinking a lot about what material to use, and how to get rid of that plastic feel, but couldn't make it any better! Even though I must say I'm not very good at taking pictures, and it's actually a bit better in reality..

Honestly painting or carding on a frame wouldn't be to difficult and would help with the plastic box feel. Top notch work however. You seen the League of Extraordinary Riveteers? There current challenge is "Make some Noise" and you'd be a top draw contender.

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak. He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

Thanks Seventyone and Captain Brown! @Llamahead: the frame could be a good suggestion, I'll try something and go back to the greenhouse after I finish my new project. I've seen the League's challenge, and I must say I've been wanting to do something on the music theme for a while, since I am a musician..sadly I'm not ready to take part this time, still looking for the right idea!

Completed the medic, along with his operating table (which seems particulary difficult to take photos of) and an acid-bin where to put corpses.

If I may ask; what torso did you use for the medic?

Thanks everybody. Tonight starts the painting of the medic; I'll wait a bit for the table, since I'm placing a body on it, and I'm still undecided about its colour.

@Mymearan: I'm not a member of that fb group, I don't know it. I'll look for it!

@Frank&Stein: the torso is from ad mec sicarians.

Hi, I've finished all the market pieces and finally made some scenic photos of them all together. hope you like them!
Next related project I have in mind is a beasts vendor, but it's still in a projecting phase. Ideas are welcome! Even if I think before that I'll go for something different, for example a vehicle, since I've never painted any.
Enjoy the pics and thanks for watching! (and sorry for the blurred ones, I must improve my photo skills; and for some stalls already showed).

Absolutely fantastic work here.

One thing I took note of early on is how all the settlements have water tanks on the roof. A nice touch of vermasatude in an otherwise insane universe.

How did you make the drawers?

Very classy shots B-Tone, definitely grimdark and strange, but in each case there is no doubt what is what. The potential for stories in these builds....

Thanks very much, really appreciate those kind words!

@ Llamahead: drawers are made with a rectangular piece of styrofoam, for the body; then pieces of plastic (I use old calling cards) are shaped and glued to rapresent drawers, directly on the styrofoam (left) or over another piece of plastic card with some rivets (right). Then an iron wire is bend and the handle is glued on the plastic. Easy as that!
