They're Arvus lighters. Standard Imperial light shuttle.

I really like the jungle habitat from the munitorum containers. Truly is there nothing that cannot be made from them

Quality. They fit in with the theme nicely.

Have you grabbed the Sector Sanctoris killzone?

I'm still figuring out what I'm going to do with Sanctoris. Four of the broken statue sprues (all three team boxes have them) is not useful at all.

I'm thinking of doing a ruined chapel converted into an IG command post. That means buying basically all of the terrain because the terrain in this wave just wasn't useful...

Keep one and sell the rest. I've sold two sets of the fallen statues for £20 each today. I'm keeping two just in case. Anyway, looking forward to what you come up with!

And here is Sanctoris.



It's overdue because the scenery in the zone and team boxes was pretty uninspiring. I also had to wait for the green stuff world sandbags only to discover that I didn't order nearly enough (there's about 150 in there).

The idea here is that it is a bombed out imperial shrine converted into a forward command post (probably company-level rather than regimental) and it's abandoned - no bodies, no damage to the vehicles, vehicles and weapons left behind, plenty of ammo remaining. That's something that most factions will want to investigate and the few that wouldn't might well be responsible and waiting to ambush anyone investigating.

Great idea! Can we get some shots showing the details on the other side?

Besides the sandbags and the sanctoris scenery what other kits did you use? Do I see parts of the sanctum kit? What did you do with the big statues?

Drill added to zone mechanicus and turntable board assembled.

The turntable board has proven to be really valuable. It makes checking those tricky lines of sight easier and it's also useful with KT's deployment zones being unpredictable.

Just a board and a big ring bearing. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07JD6MVLR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
(those are garbage, btw - not running smoothly, straight from the factory. For this application they're fine though (not exactly spinning fast or taking lots of load) and the cheapest brand name one was 4x the price)

These kits really are top notch and your creativity with them is even better. I look forward to seeing what else you can come up with so that I can shameless steal when I finally get round to starting mine.

Awesome terrain. So often overlooked, but just fantastic when done properly. This is top-notch stuff and it would be a pleasure to see a batrep over one of these

Nice job on the ruins converted to command post. I love all the little details like the tripod-mounted weapons with ammo stacked nearby and the guns left resting against the sandbags.

Are these difficult to paint with the whole board assembled first? It seems like it would be easier to paint some of the items separately and then stick it together.

I hope you can get some in-game shots on these boards at some point. These are really inspirational.

Nothing is stuck to the board and the ruined building is built in sections for easier storage.

Very cool. Thinking ahead and using good design to make your life easier!

It's the "ventilation set" from TT Combat.

The idea is that it's the Catachan equivalent of a yukon ranger station. Somewhere to get out of the weather, sleep on a cot, attend to your feet, call for help if necessary, etc.
