Blotz B28-EE-002 Russian House #2 (with Warbases Lean-to Greenhouse) WIP

 I picked this kit up somewhere last year (I think?) and built it today. Nice little thing, quick to build, the losse shutters and windows are a nice addition. I've set the windows back a bit for a better 3D effect. That way they stick out on the inside but that will only help with painting. I've added, but not fixed, a Warbases Lean-to Greenhouse to it, but Il will not be glueing it in place. Easier to store or add quest items this way (and paint!). The storage on the other side I did glue down as it is a bit fragile otherwise. 

Just not sure yet about the roof. Metal, pressed fibre or wooden panels?

Blotz B28-WW2-102 and -104 Built. Well, mostly.

 The 28mm Hospital Hut and 4x Barracks Hut I received last week are now 90% built. Roofs have been strengthend and fitted with pressed roof plates. I added a internal wall and a rail for the Hospital Hut to better fit in with my plans. I'm still looking for suitable supports to lift them 5mm or something thereabouts, and I need to glue in all of the window sills. Now that all the top work is done I can get started with those, but the fit for them is extremely tight so it is quite a chore. After that primer, but for now they are going back into the box as these will get painted in one go. Well, the 4 barracks anyway, the hospital can be painted seperately as it needs more work and doesn't perse need the same exterior color as the rest. 

 I picked up some new MDF from a local seller that has priority now as I want to get those done asap to make promopics for them as I found them very pleasant to contact. And it helps they live a 10 min drive from here. Their models have a certain TT Combat flair about them that I like, but without the card bits. And all of that will be used for Stalker/Post Apoc as well. 

 

 Oh, and the Hospital Hut needs a new door. 

Blotz Order Interlude - Hobby Night 17/12/2025

 Received the order yesterday after paying a rather painful amount of Euros to Customs. Still things. 

Well packaged, but a signed for envelope (as PostNL claimed) it was not.

Yeah nah. 

Nicely packaged in reusable seal bags, I love that.

And of course I have to build stuff right away cause attention span is for 

Anyway, at the end of the hobby evening......

Tonight I'll add the pressed fibre roofs and all of the windowsills, and build one or 2 extra walls in the infermary. Could also be thursday or the weekend, you never know. Once done they will go into the Stalker pile as these are for the Young Pioneers Camp.

Blotz 28mm Nursery Greenhouse finished

I honest to god do not know when I bought this. It could be well over 10 years now, at a Crisis show even? I started it but got burned out several times by the placing of panes of glass, and then putting it in a box where it stayed for years on end, only to add a few more panes, get burned out again, etc.

 But I'm calling it done now. Yes, I could do a ton of more work on it.....but she is good enough now. Time for closure. 

 The Blotz 28mm Nursery Greenhouse currently retails for  5.83 GBP excl VAT and can be found here:

I added a base from scrap card, used only one of the potting benches that came with it (and I'm not sure they still do as it isn't mentioned in the text). The oil can is a 1/35 Italeri one, and the blue canister is just a bead. I used various leaves from my collection, even punched ones out of real leaves, and some tufts, but kept it base so it can still properly lift off. Lot's of blister packaging was used for the glass.
