Post-apocalyptic Wasteland Scenery - Terrain Challenge
Components and eating
The fundamentals of this build are biscuit tins. First thing before anything else could be started then was to eat all the biscuits. An arduous task, but one I achieved with bravery and resolve.
Many years ago I backed the first Mantic Deadzone Kickstarter, I never really got into the game and off loaded most of it, apart from the excellent Battlezones scenery bits and pieces. To dress up the basic tins which would act as the silo/tank I used some of the Battlezones ladders and a few other bits and pieces.
To provide the upright struts around the tank (and to make it look less biscuit tin like) I used off cut pieces of plastic sprues.
To provide a base I used some ‘magazine dividers’ which are effectively quite thick plasticard.
The plasticard base was trimmed to make it look less like a piece of stationary, and then marked out with areas where paths and pools of ‘toxic waste’ would be placed.
A mix of modelling sand and PVA was whipped up and slopped on (technical term), leaving space for the marked out areas.
Taking advantage of the very un-British summer this was left out in the blazing heat for a while to set.
