A while back I saw a thread here by JRacel on making 15mm Sci Fi buildings from electrical boxes. I though it was a great idea and finally got around to trying it. Here's a link to Jeff's thread:

Here's a link to my blog with my attempt.

Very cool! I like your chosen color schemes.

I have often pondered the use of electrical boxes whenever I peruse the hardware store but haven't done any sci fi projects to justify buying any.

I did use the circular junctions to do chemical towers back in the days when I was into Necromunda. Lots of plumbing and PVC pipe uses as well.

Great looking stuff Luckyjoe! I see that both Platformers and Hirst Blocks come in very handy. I am sorely tempted to get that Hist mold and use some of the dental plaster I have sitting here (yah right, like I have the time . . . .). I like all the little additions and accessories you added, it gives them a lot of character.
