"Some rough WIPs" Topic

Just a quick update on some WIPs over on my forum.

Size Matters!

Nice forum !

Here is a WIP of a power station using some bubblegum/tape holders.
I saw it on TMP years back and forgot about it until I saw them in my local post office.
I grabbed them up and have started working on a power facility.

I was intending to use it for myself but is there any interest in buying it if I cast it up?

Here is a WIP of a small Deema Seed field.
It will be made as a flexible piece.
I wanted to try a small piece to check it comes out ok rather than to do spend ten times as long only to find it fails.
Fingers crossed though.

It should be fine and being credit card sized it is still a good size and no reason you cant put a few next to each other.

Well I decided to make a mould of the generator anyway.

Mould boxes

Mould poured

Force field generators ! The target of all rebel factions!

Moulds look OK.

Now the hard part.
Waiting until they are fully done before casting….

Cool !!!!

The power generator is truly ingenious.

I have a two piece generator from the same materials underway, but i stopped intending to get more to add to it, a bit like yours. Have you used one of those washing liquid dispensers to form the centreline sloped bit? i think it will be a very successful model.

Hi.

Not sure what you mean by centre slopy bit…

Ah. In the top picture the curved white section sticking out of the blue gum holder to the left. But i guess it isnt or you would have known what i meant. Looks great though whatever the additional materials.

This bit?

I will be doing some casting tomorrow of the 2 new pieces.

Whilst I have been waiting I have been writing a KR 16 scenario PDF and doing some Junker Tents.

I plan on doing 4 or 5 of them.
The question is:

Do I sell them as a loose pack or do I stick the tents onto a textured base and sell it as a single terrain piece?

Loose pack preferable for me…….

Loose pack, gives more flexibility.

I think as has been suggested elsewhere….

Sell them as a pack of 5.
And offer a featured base that has features on it AND the space for the 5 tents.

That way if you want them loose you get them and if you want them stuck on a base as a single piece, you get that too.

Yes, AB, that bit. i cut up a laundry liquid dispenser today for that very purpose. (Sorry to be unclear)

Ah.
That is this:

:D

woohooo it came out OK!

woohoo this came out OK too!

Flexible terrain!

A Deema Seed Field.

Ah…light dawns! They have come out nicely.

loving the power generators :) feel 1 or 2 coming

It must be said, I really like these.

very cool!

Those fields are very nice indeed – but then, it's all so damn useful! Really like the idea and style of the tents as well :)

Thanks.

:D

Would minefields be any use, just basic fields but with little mine-esque looking things breaking through the soil?

Impertinent question about the flexible field: is that made from a latex-containing product?

I hate being allergic to latex…

Sorry.
I only just saw your question.
I have checked the technical sheets and can see no evidence of latex.
They are also sold as rubber, which is why I choose this particular product.

I have just e-mailed the supplier to confirm though.
I will advise once they reply.

Anyway…

Finished the tents, just need to sand the bottoms so they sit flush then cast them up.

Updated.

No latex in the flexible products.

Next up, a very simple wall/barricade.
So simple you could make them yourself.

Though possibly more hassle than it is worth if you want lots of them.
Then you would be better off buying some that are all identical and ready cast.

;)

Michael, Minefields would have potential for me although have some already

What sort of size minefields?

need to check the book :p but probably in multiple of 50mm wide (just can't remember the depth)
Any FWC guys around to give a clue would help

Small Storage MHU.

Improvised Concrete Barricade.

Very simple minefield:

This will be flexible and be £1.00 GBP once available.

Good for those play other eras too maybe?

2 Hexway sections being made:

Once these are moulded and I have a few cast, the Hexway roads should be on sale.

I have on the go at the moment:

3 piles of junk for the errm … Junkers!

I am also getting a Hexway corner made and a large hexway rectangle to use for BUAs.

The stand for the solar panels is in a mould as is the drilling plate for the Shapeways Junker Rig.

Been hitting the chupa chups lollies again?
SUGAR rush!!!

ha ha, cotton wool bud inners.

I was waiting for the release of the solar panels to place my order, should I wait a little longer for the new junker stuff or is that still a ways off.

They will probably only be a week apart.. probably…

These rocky outcrops will be on the site by COB:

BUA ready in a few days, the first cast came out quite tidy:

looking good! Same hex size as the roadway, of course?

Hi.

Yes indeed.
Now that the school holidays are coming to and end over here I will be getting some stuff on the website, including these.

All being well by Wednesday.

The BUA.

Research Station 13.

Working on some more piles of junk and also these unusual structures:
