From DaveD - extending the comms tower - 80 points

Well , let the painting  continue I say . It’s going to be much needed to see us through I think. My last entry for the AHPC was a model for a Communications tower . I deal with these things through the day job so I wanted to do something extra with it. On going through the MDF mountain of shame I came across something that would allow me to increase its height. It would also be a separate piece of terrain if needed too .



It’s 13 inches tall by 10 inches wide , so following the traditional terrain scoring it’s about 4 terrain cubes of volume .

Now handily the previous piece fits right on top


Had to turn the warning light on


 The last few weeks have been utterly manic while I work with my colleagues to do the hard work and preparation that will keep the communications networks and the internet working in the Uk . I work in H&S I am everyone’s friend right now...makes a change!

To bring a bit of cheer to the situation I have broke out Serenity my cow town to have some virtual gaming with friends ..looking forward to getting it up and running this week .


Cheers

Stay safe people

    Oooh, that's a real beauty Dave. It reminds me of the structures on Hadley's Hope or in 'Outland'.

      The bottom piece is by TTCOMBAT, part of the industrial hive range . The top part of the tower was Products for Wargamerd

    That reminds me of the crazy tall terrain pieces we'd play Necromunda on, back in the day.

    Very impressive, both on its own and in the complete configuration!
