I'm interested in this, school just got out so I will have some free time this summer. Though I haven't war gamed in about 2 years so my skills will be rusty.

My plan is to do something Necromunda related

Good progress M0rdain.

Sounds interesting tundrafrog. Look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Ok, got some work done yesterday and today. Not much yesterday since the kids had the audacity to want to spend fathers day with me. What nerve! =P

Also, new hint for the basement: This building is going to be called the "Charlton Heston Memorial Rest Area".

ALL BASES ARE BELONG TO ME










Still unsorted bits

Sometime, I will eventually get around to pics of my junk boxes. =D

Your bits are still far more organized than mine.

But somehow, I don't hate you Nice work.

anyway, just one WIP photo of the showers. Remainder are on the P&M thread.

@ games - that's a lot of stuff. I approve
@ red - Paint? PAINT?! Man, talk about raising the game! Very cool mate.

at games etc...nice masonry work there...

and might I come with a tray and pick a kilo of your bitz candy store style? ...

and nice to have so motivated little helpers!

and at Red...I already had my fix at your thread...

Good progress GamesEtc. Good use of sprue on the truck.
Nice collection of bits too.

Good work Red. Good use of pins.

I'm still delighted to see so many people working on bathrooms at this scale.

And as further motivation and inspiration, here's how I've been making a bath:

Hopefully that will help someone.

@ Red Harvest: Not as organized as you think. After moving 1100 miles, they kinda got FUBAR. Thinking of getting some of these.

@inmygravenimage: TY

@Viktor: Thanks / Nope - ALL MINE!!!!!! / Thanks =D

@Dr H: I knew you would like the sprue use after having gone through your blog, "Know thy Judges". And thanks, I am a Bits addict, always trying to trade/buy more =D


And since I am at work right now, gonna raid the box of bad key-cards again =D Might even go through all the pens and see which ones are "bad" =D

Excellent stuff, amazing work all.

Heating up a bit now, about half way would you believe, still plenty of time, even for some new entries.

Keep it coming, it's amazing.

This thread has been a blast to go through!

Great, I mean crappy stuff everyone!

I was just going through my junk boxes the first time since I moved to TN and realized I didn't pack any of my sprue. So other than a few small pieces of sprue I have from like jump packs and such, I don't have any more!!!!

Maybe once I get bills caught up, I can see about getting some kits ordered from my LGS as he doesnt carry GW products. So, yeah, when bills are caught up - which is parent speak for "After Summer, After School Clothes and Supplies Time" =D




EDIT: Wanting to design new shoulder pads for my Sanguine Angels. Got a post about it in my P&M if anyone wants to head over there and give their thoughts? Thanks.

if postage wouldn´t be so ridiculous I would send you some sprue right away...can´t have a fellow modeller without the most resourceful resource in the world...

I feel kind of bad for having a 2x2' box packed with the stuff =/

I think I've also decided to throw out all other ideas and work in a different direction (easy since I haven't really done anything yet!).

I believe I'm going to take a stab at making a Plague (from deadzone) mutant... uhh... well it won't exactly be a toilet. I will probably use a few deadzone tiles to account for the remnants of a structure and add a kind of pit or something, where they make their deposits to the brown account.

I'll probably also put a few of these around, in case they get hungry again before heading off:


So mostly a small little structure just rotten with blood and gore, body parts and such. Maybe uhh... this is kind of gross... but bloodpoop. Like... they don't really digest things very well after they mutated. So kind of the same thing as the gore bag but just in a wet pile in the corner. Sufficiently disgusting?

Sounds interesting.

Gotta get cracking, the deadline is closing fast.

I have a question, does the structure have to revolve around the depositing of waste or can it be like a shower block or locker room?

Well, the theme is more aimed at the latrine end of things. If you can work a toilet in there somewhere it is all good, otherwise. mmmm. bit dodgy.

Thats fair, was just wondering. I'm currently planning out a kind of public restroom that I think would be common in Hive Cities, maybe one large bathroom per floor of an apartment building?

still working on my entry... painting on the dumpsters has begun...

I splattered some filth about last night. Photos to follow

Pic's or it didn't happen chaps.

The work begins!

Wow, way way more ambitious than anything I"ll have time for. Looking forward to developments!

I may end up downgrading my entry even further into some kind of futuristic portajohn, and then meet the whole "skirting your comfort zome" thing by getting the casting kit at Hobby Lobby and making several.

Great things guys, lets have some more WIP shots.

Well Updated original Post, now with prizes!!

If you must. It has a roof. And Stairs. Almost done with the exterior. Then back to finish the interior.


As always, more photos in my blog.

It is legal that I am using supplies from the supply drop from the LoER round 8, yes? 'Cuz I am. That metallic contact paper is too good. Chrome. Mirrors. All those little rivets/buttons on the plasticard...

damn....tundrafrog... will all look at the size of that thing....

and red... I am just hoping for the crappiest of all paintjobs with that build... otherwise I wont see any sunshine smiling on my entry.... ...

no seriously... very outstanding....!

and now to something completely different...

here you can see my progress of the poo competition....the mimic...:




the loo has eyes...

Good progress people.

Good to see even food cannot keep you away from your work Tundrafrog.

And good to see some more colour happening.

@Viktor Yeah it is pretty big but I have a good bit of free time so I'm hoping to finish in time. If not then at least I got started on a cool project.


@Dr. H even the most stalwart hobbyist needs a fajita break


Anyway its good to see so more progress by you guys, I'm hopefully running to the store to get some supplies today and then expect some more WIP shots.

Mmmm fajitas... one of the rare occasions in which I won't even complain a little about having to chop up so many things to make dinner.

Gotta get something worked out here, too many irons in the fire, as it were.

Some advance on mine, very basic and still WIP, but progress nonetheless:



Cheers.
