I started this project late last year and started this project in May. My goal was to make an upgraded Ice Storm Mototronica set I could use on my tables of infinity. I would then branch off and make my own things based on my experience of sort of copying others designs/ Even though they were 2D and were only ever meant for to be 2D. I expected this would take a few months. Through distraction and expansion it had taken about three times that from conception. I am glad the initial phase is done.

I have learned a little (probably a lot) on my way not only am I at now at one with my crap laser cutter. I know what it can and cant do and how to get over the quirks of materials and software. I also learned a lot on assembly for efficacy and cleanness.

These are lessons I can take on in the next step of this project for making more of my own buildings.

I already have a medical centre in mind but I am open to other types of non-residential buildings so if you have a suggestion let me know. The power hubs need to power something and the management modules need to manager things as well.

Enough of the future and the past. Now for the present! I have finished though I have just seen in the photo’s I have missed off some weathering powder. So 99% finished.

So there I have it. Milestone achieved.  The only thing missing is some resin 3D printed components. I have my fingers crossed for Christmas so this may expand and complicate my building options.

So far for infinity only I have:

  • 11 Containers
  • 3 Power Hubs
  • 3 Management Modules
  • 1 Vending machine
  • 1 Plan Lab

I thought about just moving onto the next starter set. I don’t want to do this. I want to finish a table full of sceanery first then do one more starter set type probably JSA.

Plans I have started:

  • Large billboards
  • Medical centre

Thoughts I have had:

  • Vehicle pad (never seen one of these I like and would include a vehicle)
  • Workshop of some kind
  • Robotics factory

Please feel free to let me know any suggestions which would fit this setting. I am thinking small scale start-up companies and research based additions with scope for levels, glass and visible sections but not interior play. It does need to have a narrative of some sort.

Oh well I hope you have enjoyed this so far, I gave enjoyed looking through it again and this is great for remembering lessons and how I done things.  More to come!
