Old School Necromunda

[Captain Brown]

Some brilliant scatter terrain you've made there. I like what you've done with the tarps, I must try that I think (although I have just embarked on a new bit of terrain that will take a while). Will you treat us to some action shots of the terrain and your gangs? The collection must be looking pretty awesome now.

Speaking of gangs I found my Van Saar gang, I'd painted more than I thought (3 models)! Certainly looking back over your thread I feel inspired and I might have to migrate them further up the pile so they see the light of day again before too long...

Thank you EricF

Thank you twisted moon

Had three friends over and we played some classic Necromunda.

Had the guys pick the terrain and place it, we used two fully stocked up gangs of twelve models each. Orlocks versus Goliaths

The set up.

I game photos.

Goliaths ended up with a decisive victory over the Orlocks, but everyone had tons of fun. If people are keeping score, I was on the Orlock side.

Cheers,

That is something to behold. Simply brilliant.

I have such fond memories of playing Necromunda and I think a big aspect of that was the terrain. Your scratchbuilt terrain just elevates the game that much more, love all the little details, proper, under hive stuff.

 

[Scalene]

These are great. Makes me want to paint a Ratskin gang.

 

[twisted moon]

looks like fun was had.

Thank you EricF, Scalene, and twisted moon.

Here is the second Escher gang completed.

nice work, and really like your kit bash terrain. Quite fun to look carefully and say "Hey, that's a PLA Spool, that's a CD/DVD insert, That's a Tin" etc. Same fun with the old White Dwarf's and them using things like 20mm slota bases for wall decals.

Awesome. Necromunda terrain is the pinnacle of miniature world building in my opinion and yours is the perfect example.

 

[inchmurrin]

Great terraine and minis I particularly like the character models.

 

[Sleepysod]

The Escher were pretty nice minis in that range, and these paint jobs are lovely

 

[twisted moon]

so vibrant.

Thank you ManicMan, Fimm McCool, inchmurrin, Sleepysod, and twisted moon for your nice comments.

I have built another old platform. this time I saved and used the square central cardboard tower as plastic card is getting expensive...it was also going to be fully supported buy the base and floors. You can see how I incorporated some of the cardboards notches and used L bars to hide others.

There is even a little Easter egg from Cities of Death that I found and reused.

Cheers,

[EricF]

Another awesome piece of terrain. I love all the detailing, the lamps and rungs are really nice. The angle was a good idea to cover the corner and add some further "3D" to the model.

 

[twisted moon]

nice work. it's not at all obvious that the tower is card.

Whoa, when I was looking at the photos I thought it's made from some kind of metal.

Well done. I love the way you have finished out this classic. It looks great.

 

[Captain Brown]

Thank you EricF, twisted moon, AranaszarSzuur, and OuteRimTim for your responses.

I have been away for a bit, in the meantime I did get some items built. There are from those paper cores of cat bags. Now they are some scatter terrain pipes in pallets.

Cheers,

CB

 

[Fimm McCool]

Whooey, this is gonna be epic.

 

[EricF]

Good idea, I was looking at one of those tubes just the other day and was thinking "neat little solid looking tube" "wonder what I could use that for". Now I know!

 

[batu]

I think I am going to steal the pipe idea

 

[symphonicpoet]

Found stuff can make some of the best terrain. And piles of pipe are entirely Necromuda. Love it!
