Necromunda: The Halls of Hive Primus
More Beer, More Ideas...
I wanted a couple of collection silos for the sludge vats and what makes great silos?... Empty cans! I started by scoring the edge where i wanted to cut with a good hobby knife and then went over the same lines a couple more times, this makes it much easier to get a good clean cut.
With the guide line in place its easy to judge if the line will be fairly straight or if it needs to be scored again.
I cut off the bottom of the can then replaced the plastic cap from the pack holder, this will add some more detail to finished piece.
Printed out a suitable base which the can will be fitted onto, i wanted something that looked industrial but ornate at the same time.
The can and base together, things are looking good so far.
First layer of paints, metals done in the usual fashion, the can sprayed in a standard grey primer and for the rust/chipped paint base i used rough iron form army painter.
Edged the chipped areas with some light grey paint to add a bit of depth.
Then finally added on my rust mix and iron powder to add a it of texture and colour before finally drybrushing in silver paint.
The finished vats with their collection silos.... I'm going to need a few more cans i think
WOW I love It, except the floor tiles, there still to clean
Thanks! Always good to hear feedback, I agree, the tiles do look a little clean for the underhive. Any suggestions on what you would like to see to make them a little more fitting?
Anything else people would like to see in future?
