Fuel predominantly. Well I've primed it and will start painting it this weekend. ![]() Chance visit to B&Q on the way home from work just now and picked up these goodies for a future industrial plant area. All for £6! The toilet ball cocks will make three great gas storage tanks once raised on legs. A quick ladder up the side, hatch on the roof and a few rungs up to it - et voila! The two copper elbows, self explanatory. The real find (well I think so ) is the plastic air brick vent. Picture it being the side of a processing plant or atmospheric generator which reqires HUGE vents! Looking forward to using that.It's well worth a good scout round a DIY store for bits and pieces. I hope to get two good scenery pieces from these items with a bit of mdf, plastistruct, some foam card and a little imagination. |

OK, so my resin tanks won't arrive for a week or two yet, but I've painted it (bar the gate sign - my freehand sucks so I need to look for a suitable picture I can print off!). I'm really pleased with this as I went for more rust! IMHO a very atmospheric piece! ![]() Pictured alongside the two tank bunds, I hope you can see that this kind of terrain is a great alternative to CityFight buildings. Better yet, every piece you scratch is unique! ![]() ![]() I've enjoyed making these so much, I'm going to make more! I just wish I had the same drive to want to paint figures at the moment!

Thanks guys (& Sal
) for the comments!Yes I'm on a roll! May well make another set of tanks (hence the ball cocks) and I was given a large coffee tin earlier today so I'm going to have tanks coming out of my ears! Think I'm cornering the market on Promethium!! lol I already have bunkers and defensive positions (see Rictus's thread) for the refinery. I am howver thinking it could do with a large corrugated sheet metal warehouse (damaged for playability) and I'll start on that when I get some plasticard. |
