I have now put together all of the pieces and they look awesome. here are some photos on a 4′ X 2′ mat.
Given the large amount of washing the models need, does anyone have an idea of how to make up a cheap one of your own?
The photo of “Commissar Gaunt” show just how large the pieces are.
Here he is against one of the large cylindrical towers
This one up against the pipe work.
In addition to these I have some mdf pieces that will fit in nicely.
I have four large fan platforms that will provide some “ground” texture from TTG.
A landing pad, again from TTG.
A chemical silo (paint!?) from Knights of Dice.
Awesome to see some stuff that was languishing in a box for so long come up so quickly. I use this stuff for large scenery:

You can get it in Sepia and Black. I got a couple of each and then mixed one of each to make two tubs of a dark, dirty brown which you’ve seen on a lot of my larger pieces… it can also be watered down, or sponged off while semi-dry… lasts forever and can look good in a variety of ways depending on how thinned it is or how quickly it’s sponged off…

Thanks Az .
Those terrain bits and bobs are looking good. I hadn’t seen the KoD spray paint tower before – I’ve been looking at similar things (usually involving beer cans – woohoo) to go with my Pipeworks MDF set I regularly use. That KoD kit looks good.
Looks great all laid out, as for making washes Matt wrought about doing his own on his blog https://pmpainting.blogspot.com/ but I can’t remember what article I’m afraid.
Thanks will try and find it.
Beer can and those bendy straws also work well. Need to get in touch with Viv quickly or you may miss out.
