I'm continuing with build of The Hive.
The idea was to start with 6 base boards, each 3X4 feet. Those are flat, but painted and flocked with heavy coats of clear matt.
Next there were four vertical hive sections. One is complete, the other three have been shattered by heavy bombardment.
The large debris fields at their base will also be built.
Finally there is a stand alone hive section.
The basic materials are sheet foam, various styrofoam coolers, spray paint, latex paint and railway flock.
The stone texture paint is really useful. Also the spray primers have a lot of solvent in them and that etches and textures up the flat surfaces very well.
looks at a fast-assembly naval kit for the Age of Sail.
