It was over a year ago now that I completed the first parts of this terrain pack from Atomic Mass Games for Marvel Crisis Protocol. I’d be understating things if I said that it turned out I was not particularly fond of the models in this kit, so it’s taken until now for me to get enough motivation to force myself to finish this piece.
I painted the kiosk in the same overall manner as the previous pieces, so that they at least look vaguely like they belong together on whatever board they end up on. The painting technique is well-described in those previous posts as all I needed to do to this one (for almost a year) was simply the “finishing off” elements.
L0oking at this image, I’ve just realised that I forgot to paint in those cable going from the antennae to the fuel boxes. Well, just pretend that those are painted. I’ll bring it back inside and hit them with a contrast or speed paint. proably in a deep dull red or something like that.
I think I may also need to hit those weird circles with a gloss varnish as well. Pretend that they’re a little more shiny as well then.
I’d hoped to get this thing finished for Dave Stone’s most recent Season of Scenery, but it was not to be, due to one particular other kit putting me off working on models for a time and other things being more interesting and more pressing. Still, it’s done now, and so all that’s left for this set is to paint those two billboard sign things that you can see on the bottom right of the above image. They also already have all the scratchy worn green done on them if I recall correctly. I should really get them done so the whole kit can be ticked off. I’ll have to find them first, though…

A well-worn kiosk! Looks really good! 🙂

Excellent work mate, can see the model itself being off putting, but you have done an excellent job of making something cool from it.

Yeah, if it didn’t have those odd circle patterns on it I could have gone a bit more “Star Wars” with the look and feel of it, but having them on all of the sides just prevented it from having a proper “gritty” look.

Very nice work on the weathering. Its subtle and realistic looking. I’m with you and Dave though on this one not being too terribly exciting to work on. Its kind of just a box with all due respect to the sculptor, of course. That doesn’t mean it won’t be useful in MCP and beyond however!

Thanks mate. Honestly I would have preferred a more boring box so I could then at least have added something interesting to the sides instea d of those weird circles. They have a look of some 1970’s Marvel artist drawing “space buildings” by just adding line-connected circles to the sides.
I’m sure Faust would be able to pick them from a random Issue of Thor or Silver Surfer or the FF from back when. 🙂

Makes sense, mate and haha, he certainly can! I bet he can tell us the artist behind the design too 🙂
