Citadel 6mm C42 Battlecars

This is a selection which were painted for a 1986 nationwide Battlecars competition. I painted several sets of these, and they were shipped out with terrain to each of the shops at the time. This was GW Sheffield's set. The winners of the regional heats then battled it out at Games day in the Royal Horticultural halls in Westminster, London.

28mm SF road vehicles/Tamiya 1:32 Mini 4WD vehicles

Three vehicles which can be used for 28mm SF games. I have done full posts for each one, linked in the titles.

Dash 4

Proto-Emperor ZX/Beast!

Crimson Glory/Pale Horse!

Tamiya 1:32 Mini 4WD 'Crimson Glory'/28mm SF vehicle 'Pale Horse'

Another splendid vehicle.

Original box

Tamiya 1:32 Mini 4WD 'Proto-Emperor ZX'/28mm SF Vehicle 'Beast!'

Another splendid vehicle from this range. I opted to have a fully enclosed cabin for a more SF look.

Beast!

Tamiya 1:32 Mini 4WD 'Dash 4'/28mm SF Vehicle

These cars were originally bought as vehicles for SF games, but I quickly became enamoured of their racing abilities. Battery powered, and with upgradable gears, engines, wheels etc, they were fun to play with, even if we couldn't get the proper track.

Laserburn project WIP14 - prefab telecoms station and cars

So I've done some more work on the telecoms station from warbases...

I added plastic rod scaffolding to the surfaces of the building

Then I cut equal sized pieces out of this sheet of translucent plastic.

After this, I tidied p all the white borders on the panels, and drilled places for rivets. These were then filled with tiny balls from a Brita water filter.

There's still some work to do on this side, the pile of stuff by the door is going to be more 3d, with maybe a canopy.

ism... Is a fictional telecoms operator. I saw this building as something that is easy to erect for their purposes.

Also finished or nearly finished are most of these cars, which as you'll recall came from Kinder eggs. I wanted lots of vehicles to populate my streets - these were pretty easy to do, I still have several left that need a lick of paint though. A captain scarlet key ring crept in there too, as it's perfect scale wise. Here they are so far.

More soon.
