KillZone Sector Fronteris: a Plodding Along progress


Hi folks,

 

Here reporting the first big milestone of my 2024 Plodding Along vow, with the completion of the KT Sector Fronteris environnement set.

 

After setting up a paint scheme last month, Cleaning up the big chunks of sprues, here comes the complete result.

 

Overviewing the complete set of walls set on the mat, it leaves little space available indeed. Said thata I was (secretly) maoning that not getting the Ryza Pattern ruins set included (as in Moon Base Kassius for example) was a missed opportunity! Should these have been included (with the broken door barricade and the hatch) I wonder how it would have possibly fit on the mat!.

I choosed to use the sprues NOT to build a complete any intact building. Favouring 2 half collapsed instead. "Why?" would you ask? Because I also have the Nachmund box with its 2 complete buildings. So getting 3 untouched was not of my prime interest thinking that I will end up combining the 2 sets.

 

Here bellow another shot which allows, let´s admit it, showing something better that the previous top view. And less blurry too.

As doors are coming with one side plain and one side with 3 closing lockers, the orientation of the wall takes some relevance: it would be puzzeling that the setting of the door would allow someone to close you inside whereas the purpose of these hab-bunkers is to locked yourself inside and defend your ground. Or wait that the storm pass by.

The structure shown bellow was assemblied in such a way that unfortunatly the door was in the "unproper" position. Not too shabby.

 

But neither so critical as the ruined walls are molded in a very clever way, making the doors very easy to remove and reorientate. So here it comes: you just cut the 6 attaching plastic sections and you just reposition and glue in place. :woot: Tachan! The half opened door is set with a bobby trap made out of left appart Necromunda fusion bombs grape (not shown).

Pics are a little bit blurry as I am on the urge, atm. Yet I expect I will release more latter, once the whole plodding vow will be complete.

 

So, plodding alonng vow is going well;

- KT Sector fronteris: Complete

- Bheta decima: 6oo7 spures done

- Ork Mekboy Workshop: 2oo4 sprues done

- Nachmund: 2oo7 sprues done

- Necromunda market: still in box.

 

After 6 weeks of work it is not too bad.

 

See you soon
