Lowlands Terrain - Office Building Brutalist Art

 I received the missing part in the mail so finished the main part of the build. Still working on adding card behind the steps of the stairs which is a bit more finiky than my hands can currently handle..... I managed to mess up my wristst shovelling snow and that will take a fair few weeks to get better. Jay.

I wanted some Sovjet looking art on the front of the building, so went looking for ideas. Ideas that didn't need to be printed or ordered.

So, into the MDF scrap box I delved.....

Meet either the Soviet Reindeer, or the Lady Jellyfish with a bow on her head. Don't look at me, that's what my girls told me it is. 

Anyway, as soon as the stairs are done I can prime the whole thing and get cracking. I wan't this to be done this month of I possibly can. 

Lowlands Terrain - Office Building WIP

 And I have started the 2nd building. Again, nicely cut, good fit, the only issue is that 1 part seems to be missing. It's not on any of the sheets so I've sent off a PM and they are getting right on it for me. As soon as that part arrives I can finish the build.

As the kit does not come with doors I've used scrap MDF to make 2 new ones (and I just realised I forgot to make doorknobs so that is for tomorrow), I've added railings so Yuri doesn't break his neck. Also a ladder to the roof right to the hatch I have added.  Remember kids, always have some of that spare MDF stuff in your spares bin. I need to add some card to the backs of the stair steps to make sure it is fully closed off. Once I glue this in and something falls between the cracks I doubt it will ever come out again. 

I have some sort of artsy bit from a trophy that I might fit to the front wall....if I can find it. 

Otherwise this will get the standard decay, maybe some photo's on the wall. Most of the glass intact this time, but weatherd, mossy. We will see what we can do with this. Most likely not in the next few weeks as I have a deadline for the Militia Build to catch.

 

 

 

Lowlands Terrain Small Storage Warehouse Finished

Happy with the way it looks so calling it a day. Can go straight into my Stalker collection as well as my Post Apoc when it doubles as storage for the Red Star Brewery. Nice kit to work on, I can reccomend it for super generic storage, and this will look fine when painted up as new too, or modern with graffiti on the sides etc. 

Only addition made is the card covering the MDF roof and the red star, otherwise stock.

Getting there. Still a lot to do. 

 

 

Lowlands Terrain Small Storage Warehouse

 

Picked this and 2 other kits up from a local creator (10 min drive to pick these up) and this is the smallest of the 3. 

 

Nice TT Combat like feel to the MDF, nice lift off roof and comes with 1 crate, 4 solar panels and 2 AC units as well. The light lasering on the floor and door is nice to keep intact while painting. Made for 28mm but if I am honest as always, make a fake door in the side and you have a nice large warehouse for 15mm as well. Or a hanger for a stubby aircraft? Need to paint it now.

 

They tossed in a free 0-10 counter thingy as well in MDF, for which I don't have a need but it was fun to paint up
