Raindog Posted March 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 I assembled a Hollowman, started the Rose City Raid Beer Drinking Yuan-Yuan, and robbed the magnets from more old WHFB bases and placed them on Infinity bases with Death Ray toppers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 Two Interventors and Two Fast Pandas assembled and based. I cannot figure out how the back goes on the Rose City Raid Yuan Yan, so I am working on a Kryza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 I ordered more rare earth magnets, so I base my models and unless, I start cannibalizing WHFB models, I need more. The Kryza is assembled, but waiting for magnets on it's base. I have four more bases topped and waiting for magnets. I started a Grenzer model. I am working my way down the rabbit hold for models I am hoarding. I saw Wild Bill is a part of QK, and fantasized making a QK list. I don't have enough Odalisques or Sekban, but it its fun to dream. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Thanks to a helpful photo from @thediceabide and some green stuff, the Rose City Raid Yuan Yuan is assembled and based. I finished and Grenzer, and started on a Securitat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Anybody else notice QK can take Haris of 2 Kaplans and Wild Bill? Or that Wild Bill acts as a Janissary? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 Modeling today consisted of popping MDF from the board. I used @ninefinger's penny trick. It keeps the popping a controlled depth so wonky angles and jagged teeth of the Hexagon Mill ladders won't break. It is club terrain and I did four sheets of ladders tonight. Tomorrow, is a clean up day and I can start the gluing process, I ladder at a time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 Done and done. Tomorrow, I will start the gluing process. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Slow progress: I finished six before work. The glue dries slowly. I hope to finish another six tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted April 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 3 more ladders assembled before work today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted April 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 All the ladders are assembled! Furthermore, I assembled a Ghulam Hacker. It is an older blister and still had the holos inside. I picked it up at Mindtaker minis. I also brought two Mantic terrain boxes from them. I cut them off the sprue. I need to think of the right project for them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted April 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 With a long post, or set of posts to follow, I have been working on my Battle Kiwi terrain. I bought some two year ago. It was so nice, I was too afraid to assemble it. Well, I am doing it now. It is high end. I am not remotely disappointed. I am completely impressed. Everything is cut so well. Everything has a great design. So far, two fo the Alpha buildings are up and drying. Some of it snap fits. The ladders are so much nicer than the Hexagon Mill. It is not pre-painted like the Hexagon Mill, but it is pre-primered and has its own masking tape on it. It is just smart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Rock Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 I have heard so many great things about Battle Kiwi. Any time I've had the chance to look at it in person I've been very impressed. Were I in the market for a table full of quality terrain, they would be my first stop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ish Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 I went to go check out their shop, just now, but it’s been taken down. Nothing there but a note saying that, due to New Zealand being on lockdown, they cannot ship anything out nor build anything. So they’ve taken down their website in order to give it a revamp. Bummer.

Ish Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 4Ground Publishing has a small selection of Battle Kiwi stuff, mostly for “Star Battles,” which is similar to but legally distinct from Star Wars. Looks great and makes a nice alternative to the Always Ruined Always Gothic style typical of WH40k terrain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raindog Posted April 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 From the photos. The key to the good design, is not only does everything fit off the roof to hold the structure together (the center tabs of the roof fitting in the slots of the walls), but the foundation piece (picture two) reinforces the whole structure. Basic rules: 1) Put the acrylic pieces in first. It is a tight fit and you may need to rub a slight mold line off, but not too much. You don't need glue. The acrylic comes in several colors when you order. I picked green . 2) Rubber bands are for holding the doors on. The doors are just an add to the surface piece. 3) The walls are pre-primed and pre-masked (the brownish color on the pieces). Peel off what you like, level the rest for future painted. Be careful using a knife, you can damage the primer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
