Finally got this sucker finished , not been a very enthusiastic paint but I think he turned out OK.
Little H did the skulls and decorations and the exhaust pipes. I'm to blame for the rest.
More pics on the "Surely Not" blog.

Just in case I didn't have enough work in progress projects ongoing (notice the Baneblade right at the begining of this blog hasn't appeared painted yet.....) AND with an undue amount of temptation started by the likes of NerdFest09 and others, today I started a Zone Mortalis / Space Hulk project.
Space Zone or Mortalis Hulk if you will .
First , I ordered a few ZM style walls from BlueForge in Australia. A great company sells really useful products , unfortunately in the wrong hemisphere.
Then , while they were on there way , I did a bit of planning and went to the local timber merchant for MDF. I wanted to be able to do a ZM style set up with extra corridors etc reminiscent of Space Hulk. A full Space Hulk corridor set in 3D would've been awesome but costly and very time consuming , so I cut the amount of separate corridors right back . I can always add more later I suppose.

Next , I wanted the corridors and floors raised so that any broken / melted flooring could be modelled with lots of pipework etc underneath. What you see is just the framework , I'm going to hang lots of extra details and floor tiles on the MDF.

The Zone Mortalis boards will have raised floor levels too , so that the corridors can link them together.
I think I'll get a box of Doors from Spartan Games and make a frame to fit.
Overall a happy couple of hours , now I'll have to wait till next month to get some Angry Badger floor tiles , unless I decide to make my own....

Got some hours in on the "Zone Hulk" tiles , mainly building a few more till I ran out of square dowel spacers for the flooring, then started on some pipework under the floor, need to find some electrical wire to add in there too, but almost done.
Will be starting the wall details soon.

Oh now that looks sweeeeeeet! :-) loving the raised floor area, if i had the patience I'd have liked to do something similar but I'll stick to my boring flooring! I can't wait to see what you come up with to be able to use them as ZM & SH and decorate them up, it's simply going to be amazingly cool, esprcially with your skills at weathering and osl!
now please get back to it man! I really want to see more progress! :-)

This looks awesome! I really love what you are doing with the holes in the floor its a really nice touch.
Are you planning to do the floors up as concrete?
The walls look like they are textured, I'm trying to work out what they are made from.
Great work so far.

Thanks mate , I'm quite pleased with how its turned out so far.
I was planning on sticking "spaceship" style grating tiles on to the MDF corridor pieces, but I see what you mean, the holes do have a broken concrete kinda look to them. Now I'm unsure !!!
Not sure exactly what the walls are made from . I bought them from BlueForge in Australia. They DO have a concrete like texture , tho they appear to be some kind of blue foam board. Poly cement and superglue melts it so having to use PVA to hold detailing ! Automatically Appended Next Post: Work is now going to seriously get in the way for a week or two , so I'll be painting Little H's Dwarfs and printing up Health and Safety notices for the ZM walls instead !

Oh now that would be sweet for pics dude! :-) you'd never get enough time to stop to eat I reckon! so much good surfaces for rust at different stages, dents, corrosion pipes, joiners, wires, hydro's..... Oh my the list is endless!

As nerdfest says there is really no end of options, with something like this
the pieces sound good apart from super glue being a problem... Try something called "Rocket card glue" by Deluxe materials. its a really quick acting and strong PVA.
the floor still sounds possible, a melted effect could be achieved with pva and/or greenstuff might work
or just make the holes a little bigger and have smaller holes in the floor plates.
You could try adding wires/cables onto the walls using either thin plastic rod or metal wires.

Oh I forgot to mention, when I'm gluing on those walls BigH I use a clear craft glue, it's stickier than pva and still sort of melts the foam but not as bad as other stronger glues, everything sticks well and it doesn't run, you just make sure you don't slide pieces around or push while it's drying too much! i'll grab a pic of the brand i use if you want?

Thanks OneManNoodles , I'll try that glue , sounds ideal. Flooring won't be a problem, I don't think, just lots of cutting !
NerdFest09 I'd like to see that glue if you have a pic, tho the chances of it being the same in the civilised world is slim !

This one dude! http://www.boyleindustries.com.au/E18308::219011:100ML-CRAFT-GLUE looks Aussie made but perhaps you can see what its make up is and find a linear product where you are? it works well and if you don't find anything I'll grab a bottle and send it with the heads if you need :-)
