VonVilkee Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Final version after two games with them. You are missing the bit where they can be targeted while unclaimed... That may just be a house rule for all buildings tho... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted June 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Yeah, that's what I'm going for. Just make that a house rule in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluger Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Funny you should mention it, did a little work on them yesterday to add roofing to one of them. I think it looks good so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravedigger Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Looking good. Corrugated roofs for the win! Have you tried it with soda cans before? Stronger and takes paint better than cardboard plus it can cut ya :-) Looking forward to stage two. Diggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 How do you make corrugated soda cans though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonVilkee Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 I'm picturing Lego gears setup to feed the sliced cans through... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravedigger Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 With this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fiskars-193400-1001-Paper-Crimper-/171348624955?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27e52c863b Or something similar. Cut the top and bottom off the can. Cut down the bottom and feed through. Example of finished product: http://s51.photobucket.com/user/g_digger/media/Da%20Boyz/Orks2.jpg.html?sort=3&o=34 Stuff rocks!

fluger Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Interesting, but I'm super cheap. The corrugated stuff is just cardboard that I soaked in water and then pulled apart carefully and then let dry. More work done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluger Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 No, lol. That is a left over from when my 3 year old woke up early, snuck out, and started essentially tagging a ton of stuff including our dog. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr. Bigglesworth Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Lol your three old got a hold of a spray can? Man I can only imagine the nightmare of what mine would do and the wrath of my wife. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfestedKerrigan Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 I really like the authentic TJ look you've managed to grab. Using the same building materials they do really helps with this! Perhaps add some stray grots and squigs? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAPcom Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Don't forget to put some gesso or something similar on the foam before you spray paint. The foam will melt otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted June 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 I don't know what gesso is, but I plan on going over it with latex paint first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PourSpelur Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I have a big tin of wood stain that would be awesome as a dip/wash after you paint that I can bring over too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravedigger Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Fantastic! I can't wait for the picture of that on a table with Orks fighting over it. Looking good! David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted June 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Started on the next piece. Nothing much to it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted June 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 OK, next one up. Got about an hour on it, mostly working on the roofs and support beams first, then I'll come back and add windows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
