Next up, a flock of pink flamingos, some Grey aliens, and a meth lab....

And more....

I have this still:

That picture is not mine, that is from the seller/sculptors page, mine is not painted yet. I also ordered this from him:



He does make some tractors so I may have to put one in my next order.

I have a scale model truck that is very similar if not the same model as that...Chevy stepside truck. I love this thread, it would be so fun to game with this scenery. Even with space marines.,.you could just be on a newly discovered super backwards planet. I also love the zombies angle as well, loads of fun to be had!

I just finished up my Grey Aliens I got from ZombieSmith: http://www.zombiesmith.com/products/grey-assault

The security team is in red (as all good security teams are), The Captain is in a yellow tunic, and the science team is in blue.

The sculpts are a little cartoonish, but I liked them for that reason (and painted them accordingly). They are cast with tabs to fit on slot bases and come with 25mm bases, but the minis are so small I felt the bases were way too big for them. I cut off the tabs and put them on washers as a result.

They come to anally probe us, vivisect our cattle, steal our women folk, and secure our whiskey stills for their own nefarious purposes! The must be stopped at all costs!

Anyway, all comments appreciated. These were a fun little project for me.

HA! Wonderful.

Reminds me of the movie "Paul" for some reason. Rednecks vs. Aliens.

That's a battle report I want to see.

Queen of the trailer park

I love it. Its a little on the red neck side of things, and you don't have any sheds. But other than that its great. You just need that one trailer that is really nice compared to every one else's. With a full garden and a bunch of lawn stuff. And you forgot all the no trespassing signs and the no parking signs.

The best thread EVER!!!!

you need a command squad



and

haha this is great stuff

You've just inspired me to build my own trailer park!

My wife hates you.


I on the other hand salute this fine work bud!

Thanks for the complements guys!

A buddy of mine who wrote the "It Came From Beyond The Still" rules ( http://www.wargamevault.com/product/95145/It-Came-From-Beyond-The-Still ) has a 'kickstarter' project to get some figures made that I'm looking forward to. They should make great additions to my trailer park.

Note: I am not involved financially in this, but I am buddies with the guy doing this and a fan of his game. Heck, he even included a Trailer Park scenario in the rules based on my terrain.

Awesome thread, your Trailer park is great and many pieces made me laugh out loud! I'd love to play on a board with that terrain. Imagine a battle between Orks who just made planetfall vs IG with those great characters mixed in. That'd be the most hilarious battle ever!

Wow, awesome work!

Love this, cannot believe i've overlooked this! Is Jake still active?

He could be...

If he is still around, I can think of a couple people that would really enjoy seeing new work. There has to be a little something that can be shared.



*edit for typo*

Great stuff, this kind of inventiveness is so nice to see!

A quick update, one of the games I use this terrain for is "It Came From Beyond The Still', a great game where rednecks and aliens and MIB can all go at it. The Greys can place Pink Flamingos, some of which are actually sensors. So, since every trailer park needs pink flamingos anyway...








Next up will probably be the local Stop-N-Rob store.

Reminds me of a game I was on development for back in the day. Trailer Park Tycoon

Thanks for that update! It's why I stay subbed to this thread. Always a treat to see what you have been working on. The smaller Greys at the end of the trailer cracked me up. Those are great models. And the pink flamingos suddenly placed this trailer park in Florida to me for some reason. Maybe it's an association thing. Well done all around, and the overall scene really tied it together.

Looking forward to whatever else you can share when you have the time.

Really love the way the Park is taking shape! Some old grocery carts would be cool too! Looks sooooo much like the crap tastic park that is about 100yds from my nice sub division! Gotta love living in the South where you can have $250K homes right next to shacks and places like your terrain !

This looks like great fun. So many tiny funny details.
