Alrighty, Xmas is done and it's back into it.
While I am workign on the bigger peices it occurred to me when they are done I will have nothing, so I started on some more Shanty Huts. Here's the frames ready for detailing...
And some detailing has already begun ...
This one has turned into a bit of a favorite and is getting lots of detail, however I now need to cast up half a dozen doors as the cut out isn't quite tall enough.

How about some gangers then? Here's a small sample of my gang the Shades of Malice and the infamous ratskin scout Indigo Crash
... ok, there's more terrain, but I built this years ago, and they are objectives more than terrain.
The gangs water still...
... and a hidden tunnels / mine entrance.

I absolutely love that Delaque scheme! And, also, could you tell us where you got those lovely corrugated sheets for the huts? I could seriously do with some of those.
Yeah CDs make great scatter terrain.
@SomeHairyGuy the card is from a local arts and crafts store, cost a little over $10 but was a big bag of the stuff, and I've hardly dented the stuff so should last me ages.

Try scrap booking supply places too. Ebay isn't the cheapest but this search found some in A4 sheet sizes.
Moar updates!
The Industrial plant is complete!
As is the scrap heap.
Two shanty huts are complete ready for basing and painting.
These currently look hilariously bling with all the gemstones as rivets
Oh and that oil barrel is an AdvanceOp original (Doors are HirstArts mold #30)
I used seven of the centre punch outs from the Xwing cards (that go on the base) and one of the smaller ones from the maneuver dials! Then made a mold using Instantmold and cast up the barrel. Sadly the mold broke in the first cast as I went a little thin on the corners but the beauty of Instantmold is I just chuck it in hot water and make another mold!

Back to work and all time for hobby goes out the window. Doesn't help that I've had a bum shoulder for the last 2 weeks. Here's hoping some chiropractic magic fixes it by the end of the week.
Shanty town progress is down to a crawl. Been too busy playing games on it like this five player custom scenario
While I came -> this <- close to escorting the trader we had to rescue off the board, after seeing half the gang eaten by monsters, my gang bottled out leaving the trader to his fate.
Yaktribe Comp V Entry
Anyhoo, for the inbetweeny comp I have entered my Industrial plant, so on the Yaktribe Comp V. Here's the starting parts so far. Going to be a loooot of greenstuff.

Woot! That's my arm, with the chaos symbol!!! Surely I can add that to the real me thread?
Might have to sign up and check out what this twitter thing is all about - I thought it was for kids too young for facebook...
140 Characters? Well, since starting Gunner's Cove, I think I've done about six, not counting the 14-20 for my gang, so even if I said that was 26, that means I still have 114 characters left... should blitz it in.
How to sabotage your own success:
Step 1: sign up for a Necromunda campaign. Look forward to finishing painting the gang.
Haven't played in 4 years this is going to be at awesome
Step 2: Sign up for an inbetweeny comp with the plan of building a whole table of terrain
2 weeks leave! Plenty of time! So need Necro terrain
Step 3: Realise that being married with 3 kids means you no longer count as a bachelor. 2 weeks isn't as much time as you thought.
Step 4: Maintain the excitement! Sign up for the Yaktribe comp with an entry for a COMPLETELY NEW FACTION.
Step 5: Plan a highly converted model and commit to it online for the world to see.
Step 6: Mention this cool retro gaming to a mate who gets so excited he comes OUT OF GAMING RETIREMENT and buys paints and supplies....
.... FOR GORKAMORKA!
Step 7: glue two pieces of your comp entry together over a period of 2 days. Then get a hold of 20 more models for the whole gang!!
Step 8: Start planning your Morka gang. Play Warmachine. Buy Car Wars. Book a day off work to go kayaking. Remember you still have a commission Bloodbowl team to paint. Start organizing a finale game for the stalled Flames of War campaign you are supposed to be running.
What was step 1 again?
On the plus side I have painted up my 4' x 4' folding board prototype. Hopefully photos to follow this week (if I get time!) and a possible field test Friday night.
If I can finish the shanty town by the end of January I should be right for terrain for both Necro and Gorka, albeit 4 weeks behind schedule.
STAY ON TARGET!!!
Ooh...X-Wing... what a cool idea!
