Hide / Shield.

Terrain piece made from mainly household junk (what can you spot?). Some additional scrap cast pieces from my experiments and a wall corner of foamcore. based on a CD covered in tissue/PVA.

Turning the corner of a ruined building into a shield or hide for the battle to come. Construct a rough wooden frame to support all the junk you can find.

Space Marine miniature for scale.

More views of Hide/Shield.

When painting I was very aware of giving a mix of colours; Green camo' tarps, pale sandbags, brown wood, a bright blue chunk of armour, yellow spikes, grey concrete, and all manner of varied metals and rust.

For something thrown together from scraps, it wouldn't have a coordinated colour scheme.

Hide/Shield returns.

Even side-on there is still some cover to find within.
And it's large enough to park something behind it.

Last set of photos of Hide/Shield.

Using a CD for the base gives you a good idea of scale, and for those that have never seen a CD (bless your little cotton socks) here's some scale photos with a tape-measure and Space Marine.

Plus some close-ups of the base and interior of the shelter.

@DrH Great work, as always. I used to love repurposing plastic trash, wood and other bits for 40K.

@croyle Thanks again.

The problem is that I have boxes and boxes of plastic bits that are unique and "could be useful for something one day"... and not enough time and/or motivation to build things with them.

Or when I do build, I forget to look and scratchbuild something.

@DrH

Bottle cap?

Garden hose nozzle parts?

I think part of a roof used to be somekind of display/shipping stand?

Oh that looks so rad.

Ton of fun building that I bet.

What did you pull those gears out of?

@DrH

Your rust weathering is top notch. I think I'll refer to you as Dr Corrosion from now on.

@mastosalo Thanks again.

My rust thoughts can be found in the 5th part of my Sprue hut tutorial on kofi.

Free to view, just somewhere to host it.

@mastosalo I could tell you some of the items, but where's the fun in that.
Thanks.

The larger gears I have were from a small blender/chopper thing, smaller gears I got out of a cheap clock mechanism (those black boxes with the single battery).
