Gaslands (7) The War Rig and the last of the vehicles


Proving that I can actually finish a project, here are the last of the vehicles that I've converted/painted for Gaslands. I could keep doing these as they are quick, easy and fun, but just how many vehicles do I need?

On to the vehicles, first up the last two regular vehicles, starting with this Pontiac to which I've added a driver(not that you can see him):






And this truck which I left fairly empty as I reckon rules for pedestrians will be in the expansion and I plan on sticking a few in here eventually:







I also finished the final 6 bikers:





Making a nice gang of 10 in total:


 
Finally the War Rig which isn't as good as I'd hoped but still its fairly big and impressive looking compared to the regular vehicles:





















And I did put some crew in the War Rig which you can just about make out on close inspection:


And a quick pic of the whole lot:


Oh and I did go back to that old minehead buildings (see Gaslands Part 5) and added the requisite rust n dust:






That's it for Gaslands for now, probably back to some 15mm fantasy stuff or those pesky Blood Bowl Halflings next.

Gaslands (6) - More Vehicles including some Oddballs


I have managed to finish off a few more vehicles which just leaves the War Rig, 6 bikes and the last 2 cars to do.

First up some Oddball cars which are meant to represent the more far-fetched weaponry available to some of the teams:






And another:






A couple more bikers got done:


Bringing the total to 4(out of 10):


Another Monster Truck:






This one has the shape of a classic Dark Future Interceptor:





And finally muscle car type:





I'm definitely finishing off the last of the Gaslands stuff now before going back to other unfinished projects.

Gaslands (5) - Scenery


I seem to be on  a bit of a go-slow painting-wise, I'm getting plenty of gaming in but just not feeling the urge to pick up a brush! Saying that a sudden burst this weekend led me to finish off the small amount of terrain I've knocked together from odds n ends for Gaslands(though it will work just fine with my 15mm Sci-fi stuff too)

First up a MDF kit I bought which had these lamppost type things and barricades to which I added some bits and pieces and the corrugated sheeting:





and then some bits of household/bits box junk(including some hamster cage connecting tubes):




I was given this building some time ago and I reckon if I give a quick weathering it will look the part:




and these bits I've nicked from my Sci-fi stuff:



All this grubby terrain has made me want to pick up some of Vanguard Miniatures 15m Skinnerz(that's Orks to you an me) to inhabit it and to harass my colonists.

Oh and finally, this was a flowery track to go around a princess castle of my daughters which was getting thrown out. A quick spray and a (very) rough paint job; it being completely flat I found it hard to get it to look decent, and I have a small section of dirt road, and on the reverse a (crap) looking tarmac road(which will come in useful for my 15mm Prohibition stuff)





I'm determined to actually finish a project so have dropped the fantasy to finish the last few Gaslands vehicles.
