For this game I wanted a few different types of terrain, jungle housing, some old ramshackle post apocalypse buildings, big rocky outcrops and finally some pre apocalypse overgrown buildings.

I had struggled to find ruins I liked the look of,a lot of the 40k stuff is too gothic for what I wanted. Then I discovered fabricators lab and they hit the mark.

Having printed various pieces off and thrown them together, I primed them black with Citadel Primer. Next I got some cheap silver craft paint and roughly dry brushed all the surfaces . I used a copper paint on the machines and pipes for a bit of tonal variety.

I wasn’t worried about precision for this part because I plan on adding flock and foliage to a lot of the surface area.

Next up I added a bit of verdigris to the copper bits. I plan to add a little rust to sections of wall, but not go overboard as I intend to make the whole item overgrown.

Next step, I glued the larger pieces to some MDF board so I can add various bits of plant life
