Another piece of “Epic” scale scenery today – we have a piece from Grendel that I picked up in the 1990’s which appears to be OOP these days – I can’t find it on the Scotia Grendel site, nor on the Lost Minis Wiki. As always with these sorts of things, anyone who can identify the name/code of this piece (or a link to where it may be sold today) will get a thank you edited into the post.
We can see the ladder and hatch on the side of this thing, as well as what looks like capacitors all around the perimeter of the piece, as well as inside the panels and on the roof. I can’t say I particularly enjoyed painting this one, so rough and ready is good enough for me, particularly as it’s just a bit of random terrain.
Here’s how it looks alongside some figures of the appropriate size. It’s okay as far as size goes, and completely “fine” aesthetically.
It’s also one of those pieces that kind of also works in a scale-agnostic manner, though in larger scales it’s more of a skirmish scatter piece good for LOS-blocking individual models.




Interesting little piece mate, and executed well, the batteries dotted all around seems a strange mechanic, unless it’s powered by screams or laughs of course ! LOL

Looks really good I think! 🙂 Works well with larger figures!

Thanks John. A lot of those old Grendel “epic scale” sculpts worked well as 28mm scatter. We used a bunch of them in our Necromunda games back in the day.

While I imagine this was a straightforward sculpt to paint, I think it came out nicely and the fact that it works well with different scales is always a good thing too. I think the design of this terrain piece is interesting as well. If nothing else, it really stands out from other terrain I’ve seen which I’d say is pretty cool!

Thanks mate. I could have put more into it. Maybe some hazard stripes in those corner insets would have looked good, but it’s a weird kind of piece that I’m not sure if it would be worth the time to do it to with so much else to try to complete.
