After a couple of hours in the Battleshed breathing in that
heady mix of laser-cut MDF and PVA glue, three more scenery models have been
added to my collection. These were the Sarissa Precision kits that I bought back in February whilst at Vapnartak, the York
Wargames show.
The first two (left to right in picture below) are from
Sarissa's 28mm Sc-Fi range - the 'Command Pod - Communications' and
the 'Hanger
and Strong Point Landing Pod Top'. The third model is from their Old
West range, the 'Wind Water Pump'.

The two Sci-Fi buildings were bought with plans for them to
be incorporated into a VSF terrain board for In Her Majesty's Name. Various
sections from the buildings can be swapped out - for example the Strong Point
landing Pod Top can be swapped with the Communications Pod.
Now I've finally
got these buildings put together I'm forming ideas about how to progress this
board. Add in a few Victorian buildings and a bit of painting and customization and I've got
the Headquarters for Lord Curr's Q-Division laboratories, manufacturing and
testing area. That hanger is just asking for a good VSF Blimp model!
The Wind Water Pump is destined for my Dead Man's Hand town, Obsession.
It already has a Water Tower but I liked the water pump so much I had to have
it! I think it'll be a fine addition.
They are great. Look forward to seeing how you finish them off!
ReplyDeleteThey look great. I look forward to sneaking round them and shooting at you đŸ˜‰
ReplyDeleteGordon, lots of airbrushing and weathering pigments I think!
ReplyDeleteSam, I'll get the 'special red marker' ready ;)
Unusual and beautiful, I really like this!
ReplyDeleteIndeed Phil. I've been admiring the Sarissa Precision kits on demonstration at various shows for quite some time and have finally found an excuse to purchase. There are a plethora of MDF kit suppliers out there now - I have a fair few 4Ground pre-painted kits for my Dead Man's Hand town - but the Sarissa ones really stand out for me. The designs are quite elegant and original. They even look good unpainted :)
