More 3d printed terrain pieces as per usual today – though this time we have two small prints – one each from nonPareil Institute and one from Fabricator’s Lair. Basically, while I was playing around with these two printed elements, I found that the Generator clicked into place quite firmly on the roof of the small Fabricator’s lair piece, and actually looked pretty good for a small building. What could I do? I made it so!
Deciding on a paint scheme was pretty straightforward – I’ve always been a fan of Adeptus Mechanicus in Red since the Rogue Trader days, though I will say that edging this building was a bit of a nightmare – one only made bearable by my AK Interactive Paint Pens (not sponsored, but look at all them lines!) Luckily the generator element was much more straightforward. I like to do “plasma” coils in copper tones, and then only add some bluish glow if they’re activated. Which these ones are presently not. Clearly.
Here’s a scale shot of them for both Epic and 32/40mm scale. As long as you’re happy to “read” those mesh grids as windows in one scale and vents in the other, I think this piece will do just fine. And we have another (pair of) model(s) that count for Dave Stone’s Season of Scenery ’25 – Extended Edition.





I do like that red scheme! 🙂 All looks good, separate or combined, large or small scale!

Thanks Tarmor – super simple and something literally from fidgeting and playing around with prints while doing other stuff on the PC, but worked out well!

Looks great.
Yeah the lining would be a bit tedious I would expect.

Thanks Frank. 🙂
Definitely tedious, but at least using the pens it wasn’t also painful! 😀

That building has some very fine details and it looks really nice all painted up! I like the weathering on the top bit, in particular! A power plant is a fantastic strategic location in wargaming and could potentially have all kinds of fun rules, if you want to incorporate them as well.
