Bunker 18 - Sarissa Precision AD03 - Fallout Shelter Entrance

For my Zona Alfa collection.

I left off the post office box and the handle, filled in the holes and used a valve from my sparesbox instead. I reversed the top part to the paving effect isn't visible. 

I tested out Greenstuff Worlds washable paint but it keeps bleeding through everytime I added another coat of varnish, so not likely to use that anytime soon.

Nice little thing to build, builds quick, paints quick. Only 9,95 Euros on the website atm: Sarissa Precision Fallout Shelter Entrance

Sinking Tower WIP

 




Blame Griefbringer bringing up a sinking castle in a swamp on the LAF on my Pillage topic. Now, for Pillage that would be rather absurd, but for Verrotwood not so much. A whole castle is out of my league, but a single tower?

 I grabbed a free one off of the bambu site, sliced it so it tilted a bit in 2 directions and printed that off. gave it a prober base, sand, primer and got cracking. While painting I notice pretty quickly that I had managed to download someones shitty AI project as it makes 0 sense when you look at it, but hey, I was halfway already so lets go. Waste not and all that.


 As I am pretty far a long, a thought struck me lastnight (painfull but I'll live) that it would be nice to have a drop in monsters nest on top of the tower. I'll first finish up the tower as is, but a nest needs eggs so I grabbed some wooden beads, superglue, toothpicks and my trusty Dremel.

Trash....Basura

 Finished these scatter pieces for my 28mm collection.

The 2 1100 liter Wheelie bins are from Warlord (Cast by Skytrex), decals from a Miniart kit

 The 2 Dumpsters are from Greenstuff World and are 1/48 scale (and seem to be OOP as the ones on the website are slightly different). Decals on front are both from Greenstuff world and I just realised I forgot to paint text on the yellow stickers....oops.

More dead tree tests and a idea for a castle in a swamp.

 Free STL picked up online of 4 different dead tree stumps, and painted up the first 2.

Can I just mention it is very frustrating that every time you take a pic close up of FDM printed stuff the lines show up, but when I or my mates look at these up close no one can discern the lines with our naked (and me with my augmented) eyes? Only when you zoom out a bit and release the focus you get to see what I see. Anyway.....







And one for the general mood of things.



Also, when discussing swamps on the LAF the mention of a castle in a swamp turned up, so I grabbed a free stl, tilted it in 2 directions with the slicer and based it up. Now primed for tomorrows hobby night.

Vietnam test table

 I picked up a 4x4 mat from Greenstuff World that had a meandering stream bed in the middle that I intend to use for Pillage, but I wanted to see how it would work for Vietnam. In 15mm. And it works just fine.

I do need to make a few stands of palmtrees. And find my box of resin roads that seems to have gone AWOL (so you need to imagine where they would be, ok? Otherwise I'm pretty far along I'd say. 







As a swampy stream area with a ford for Pillage or other fantasy games. The 4x4 format makes it useful for Verrotwood as well. 

Verrotwood table layout test

 Same as with my Zona Alfa table, going over what I need to add, and this case.....a bit more diversity in trees so it isn't a episode of Pines-R-Us would be nice, and some farm buildings, burned down or not, and walls. But otherwise, not bad at all as it is.
