40k Terrain from Trash - Industrial Building

Like most of you, over this period, I have had more time for hobby than in the last three years combined (probably).

I have always wanted to do some terrain from trash and again like many of you I have hoarded vast amounts of stuff in the 'I will use that one day' scenario. Well this is finally one of those days, I spotted a couple of nice looking biscuit packs and went to work.

They are very flimsy so I filled them with paper dipped in white glue which when dry made them fairly robust. Next I added some bits, bottle caps, pieces of lego or something similar, computer bits and some 40k bits.

I superglued them on being careful to not add to many bits as the packs had a nice shape already.

Next was to prime in black and then base coat with a WW2 green which looks great for these types of buildings in my opinion.

I added some black wash followed by a drybrush of the same green, next was to add some light brown wash/paint for dirt and rust. Next was to paint the brass bits follwed by a green oxide paint and a second drybrush of a lighter brass.

To finish off I did add some proper rust effect weathering by model mates which look amazingly real.

 

The second building in the next post.

Hope they provide some inspiration.
