Are you ready?! I can see you drooling! Finished tunnel bits.... ![]() ![]() The letters are lettraset and where a total pain to apply. The arrows point to a hidden stash. ![]() I love the way the rust has come out on the air vents. ![]() ![]() More lettraset letters ![]() ![]() Finished long tunnel ![]() The removable tunnel door. ![]() SHUT THE DOOR! Where you born in a barn? ![]() Other side ![]() The barricade for the long tunnel. ![]() Other side ![]() The collapsed tunnel. ![]() More from the tunnel ![]() The removable barricade. I should make a door for this too. A new room... ![]() I made two of these rooms. ![]() Other view. I also made a long room. It is inspired by one of the first scenes in Metro 2033 game. ![]() ![]() The door end. This is a air lock type and goes up to the station on the surface above. ![]() The door opening. It is all done with a double wall so the door appears to slide in it. Here is detail of the door wells in the wall. I plan to add some controls for this door in the detail but I want to keep the rest of the room plain for maximum flexibility. I may also add some vents high in the walls as in Metro2033 all sorts of mutant nasties attack the station through here. But that is only one battle in hundreds.....

Awesome stuff man! I really like the bold and vibrant colors of your world, by the way. In all your work -- models, vehicles and terrain. It just oozes character and ambience. Nothing looks generic! |

Thank you for the complements. The tunnel terrain is made to a plan. It was based around the tunnel map of a sewer system from the Stalker PC game. One or two rooms are inspired by the Metro2033 game. The others are generic so I can get more flexibility. There is also a piece of packaging I am working on that makes a great multi level sewer thingy. As for the tunnels once I have a two level room done I will probably draw a line under it and start on stuff to fill the rooms. I have to admit that it is tempting to make up a few more tunnel sections as I have more ideas. I think I need some 45 degree bends too. Then there is the temptation to create some proper sewer type tunnels which will be interchangeable with the current system. I will see where I end up. If I am honest I want to play with it.....

Very inspiring terrain! It will give your games a great PA-feel. I hope I'll be able to pay homage to this work of yours some day! (read: shamelessly steal your ideas) Get it done and post Battlereports ASAP, man! -Carr |

Thanks again for the comments. Its been a slow week modelling wise. I was away for a couple of days, it was my wife's birthday, have had visitors, had a sick Cat (oh the joys of forcing tablets down a cat's gob!) and my good lady has got a kidney infection (keeping her supplied with tea, pills and sympathy). So my week off has been filled with visits to the doctors and vets. I am on a Early shift tomorrow so I have limited time tonight. I have managed to make up one or two bits. I have the last room constructed. I am still working out how to put vents into the long rooms walls. Put together a new small tunnel with roof supports in it. Made up some odds n sods for fill the rooms with. Some chairs and shelves. I have also been experimenting with making balsa look aged by soaking it in tea. Pictures of all this to follow as soon as I get a minute.

Man I hope you feel better. Dont fancy the sound of your mutant pee though! I have managed to get some paint onto the other tunnel sections. Just stuff for the floor. I have also added the goo to the broken pipe section. The PVA is dried and I am about to add colour. |

Well I have kept you all on tender hooks for long enough.....time for some pictures. ![]() Finished tunnel....best watch that grid thing. Something unpleasant might climb out of it. ![]() Another shot of the same tunnel. ![]() You have been warned! The tunnel's graffiti. I thought it might be fun to have sections where you cant use certain weapons. ![]() A right angle. The mad looking huge pipe thingy is a 20mm plastic conduit bush/coupler. You can pick them up in DIY stores quite cheaply. The electrical box is made from the covers you get on a 3 pin mains plug when you buy a new appliance (US and Euro guys might not be able to get these as your plugs are round pins). The hole in the top was plugged with putty. The cable is a guitar string with a putty bracket. ![]() Eeeewwww - watch your step. The puddle is PVA glue painted green. It may be hazardous it may not...step in it and see. ![]() The lower walls in this section came from packets of end pieces for UPVA windows that where left behind when the builders installed our new windows a couple of years ago. A long dead explorer lies on the floor - a warning to others. ![]() The vented tunnel. ![]() The other side of the vented tunnel. I quite like how the pipes turned out. ![]() Ribbed section with grid. The ribs are made from plastic coffee stirrers you loot from cafes. ![]() A shot of the wall ribs. There is one more tunnel piece to show you but the fine detail paint still needs adding to it. I also have a braced tunnel made up - but my camera is low on battery power. I hope to add some rooms pictures later this week. |

This had to done in two parts as there now seems to be a 10 pictures a post limit on the forum....grrrrrr. That is going to make batreps a pain. ++Edit - just checked the settings and it had been put back to 10! Reset it to 60 images per post. ++ Now for random litter... ![]() These pallets where made by consectari. I stained them by soaking them in tea (recycling the old tea bag!) to give them an aged look. What do you think? ![]() A balsa book shelf. Stained in tea. ![]() Random chairs - still a WIP. Its an idea I have stolen from Terragensis. They are made from 10mm mesh you get for animal pens. The coverings are green stuff. At least I have a use for left over putty now. Plus they have saved me a fortune buying resin chairs. ![]() More random wooden clutter. Most of it was left over from the supported tunnel section. Again stained in tea. ![]() These came in the same toy dolls house set as the lockers. I am thinking about raising them to make them look better. Edited by mattblackgod, Jun 14 2010, 08:59 AM.

You've produced an incredible amount of high quality work. You must have a ton of these by now. Can't wait to see the first batrep on them. |
