Take a look at these…..
So, I thought I'd also share my latest additions to my scratch built scenery, my post apoc blasted modern ruins. I intended these for use in modern to zombie, post apoc and sci-fi. I try and make stuff that will fit a wide range of use due to real lack of storage, otherwise I would… Continue reading It’s been the ruin of me! Scratch built 15mm modern ruins scenery!
Bug Hunt Corridors by Fantasy Arc — Kickstarter. It would seem that 122 of you out there agree with me, when we talk about these brilliant scifi scenics.

Tabletop Towns. by Julian G Hicks — Kickstarter.

So I thought I would share my latest finished alien plant terrain piece, I regret, I wished had more time to spare between my projects, wargaming, sculpting and real life commitments. Usually I would have taken some WIP shots as I made the piece, but due to time constraints and not having my camera charged,… Continue reading More 15mm Alien plant terrain- Alien swamp
Every time I walk past the HQ model of the Black dog building I made, I get the urge to start expanding the scenery how I had intended to originally. I do then, realise that this kind of thing needs time devoted to it. Yesterday, I had a couple of hours spare to get something… Continue reading Black Dog HQ landing pad scenic WIP

After the initial product launch, there has not been a great deal of new material released from Hawk Wargames until a few weeks ago, when they finally released the resin buildings that they had been promising for several months.

So far I have done my main admin block/junkyard, and I had another piece part done that goes on the front of it, a section on road with odds and sods on it. However, a good examination of the model revealed it was bland. Hardly… Continue reading 15mm scratch built junk shuttle craft WIP
