Hi Folks,

 

After weeks procrastinating about these platforms that needed to be finished, I final managed to convince myself that it could not stay uncompleted longer.

So, I applied a kind of autodiscipline: spend 10 minutes every day applyong the wraithbone colour I selected as main tone for the platforms. It took me 2 weeks to finish, mainly because covering of splashed metallic tones requires more than onne coat and also because there is a lot of small gaps to be painted. I swear I will think it twice before I will buy more platforms.

 

And if you plan to buy some, before selecting a paint scheme, think it carefully and stick to simple schemes. I decided to go into too much details, that in the end do not really matter. But once you started, you should do all your platforms the same way. Otherwise while mixing them it will looks odd...

 

So, the kit is not offering a lot of variety, this is something damn sure, but I hope it will give depth and options to the rest of my AdMech and Manufactorum scenery.

 

Here is a general overview of the final result:

All access traps a removable. 

 

 

Piles are less detailled than previous terrain released by GW, And it does not really matter as it probably have the right amount of detail for a tabletop:

My favorite remains the round platform for the Reactor/Furnace. Even if the level of details is lower than the one of previous octogonal platforms. 
Once again, not a big deal.

As for the objectives, they were showcased some times ago already:

 

So, what´s next? Well, I primed the landing pad of the Moroch set, so it is a good candidate now. And I still ahve the Necromunda market set to start. Even if this one will probably require more time: I ran out of paints and I had a stop at the FLGS that opened last year in town (note the use of past tense). It was in a remote area, did not do any publicity... In fact I went aware it existed only 2 months ago. So I stopped by this morning and... it appeared it ran out of business. So I will have to order online or try this new big hobbycraft store that opened in the mall nearby which, apparently, has all the Vallejo range available...

With all these platforms stacked it might look like the terrain should be used with a Donkey Kong launching drums at Mario.

The stacking has been done only on purpose of getting all the stuff (or most of the stuff) in the focus range of the camera. :turned:

 

I doubt I will use it alone. Most of time it will be mixed and matched with the rest of my scenery models. For Mechanicus / Manufactorum themed tables to be used with any of my armies (SM/SW/BA, CSM, Aeldari, AdMech, IG (very small tank only)) and any contender that may come and play.
