Necromunda Greppy's Plog Thread

[Greppy]

Hi!

My name is Greppy and I'm a Necroholic and I'd like to start this thread to share what I'm working on.

I recently finished, and currently running a homebrew campaign with handmade Laser cut terrain at my FLGS. I've enjoyed making the terrain so much I'm already working on my own Zone Mortalis system and preparing for a Assualt on Precinct Fortress 17 mini campaign later in the summer and potentially starting my own studio.

Here is the 3D model for my first ZM tiles. It'll be made of 3mm MDF and a 1mm greyboard layer, hopefully I can get a few cut soon

I've also been getting ready for the Ash Wastes. I'm not decided if I want to take my beloved Eschers or my new Badzone Enforcers gang into the wastes.. regardless I got building my Cargo8 and purchased some interesting cloaks from Anvil Industries to try on my models. They fit the Enforcers quite well, but they are a bit bulky for the Eschers models, some of them fit okay (not pictured).. they look okay at arms length which is where they will spend most of their time.. I'll have to see if I can shape them a bit around the necks.

Heck of a way to start a plog! Sounds like you've got projects galore.

Welcome to the Tribe! Lovely progress so far how about FDM printing the boards? I’ve no knowledge of FDM but if my resin printer had a big enough build plate it’d work.

Looking good, the cloak seems a little small for the Enforcer but the Eschers are a great fit.

You think? I'm bit worried they over power the model a bit but the shape and poses are really nice.

Thanks! I can't say, I've never used 3d printers really. I do have a 1,000mm x 700mm laser though and it's much faster than 3d printing, 6 of these tiles will take ~an hour to make and each tile is 300mm x 300mm (12x12 inches) and has minimal cleaning, just PVA glue them together and go!

Nah, they work quite well.
And since you are "with laser", you should check out some of the amazing work of our dear @Bilbostomper

I've been working on my Badzone Enforcers. The weapon sights from Anvil Industries are perfect for Enforcers, they fit exactly right on the weapon rails.

Ok, the trick with the neck is to cut out ALL of the neck and leave the collar of the undershirt, then basically any head with a normal rounded bottom fits in there. I did a couple, super easy.

Do you have an example to share?

Sure. This is my old thread... not so much old as I haven't played or anything in forever so it kinda needs an update.
But anyway, this post and the next should be pretty self explanatory. But if you have any questions, ask away.

Ok, progress to now. And for anyone planning on using DUST stuff, looks like their small arms mounts are the same size peg as GW, lucky lucky. As you can see, I put in a placeholder autogun both to check size (freakin huge) and fit (good somehow). The ramp/stair is done aside from drilling...

I cut my first tiles today! I ran out of time so I only got one greyboard overlay cut.

 

[Punktaku]

I imagine you’ll be painting this, but I kinda like way it looks as is.

 

[cainex1]

You could honestly just basecoat the mdf base and parts in a dull grey and it would probably be ok to play on.

Yeah, I will, I literally cut it yesterday night

I finished 5 more tiles and started work on the columns. I'm deliberately making the column walls simplistic because I'm going to add a page of gubbins that can be glued to them (pipe covers, grates, vents, console, panels etc) so they can be customised.
