Plasma node and water vapor still

Hello and Welcome Back, 

Time for some Sci Fi terrain. I have been on a terrain binge of late. 

Definitive Colony Systems (DCS) Corporation provides the very best equipment for frontier life with quality built right in. 

Every Colony needs power. This Local Plasma Node (LPN) is a lone standing node which can be ran alone or net worked to other nodes via a orbital satellite providing a local power scource without the need for a power grid. The satellite will provide a direct power supply via a high powered laser beam. In Stand alone mode the Local Plasma Node can be charged by a Plasma Rifle and will provide enough power to run a small community for a long time without the need for a top up. 

This model is a Bolstered Drop Alternator by TT Combat. 

Every frontier settlement needs precious water. Every settler needs water to live. The DCS Atmospheric Water Still (AWS) draws water vapour directly from the atmosphere and the water is condensed into a waiting receptical. 

This model is a trash build. The base is three plastic milk bottle tops. The water vapour collectors are spare (clean) syringes with a elastic band wrapped around it. They are unused spares that would have ended up in the medical waste bin. The fitting is a (clean) medical blood cap and a medical receptacle a cap. A bit of electrical wire makes the water outlet pipe. 

Stay tuned, more terrain is to follow. 

Thanks for looking and stay safe out there.

Warriors of the Wild Galaxy - DCS corporation

Hello and welcome back,

In the Wild Galaxy the more powerful Corporations have spread across the Galaxy. They are a power in their own right having their own armies to protect their assets. The Definintive Colony Systems (DCS) corporation is one such Corporation. 

DCS is the largest and most powerful corporation suppling everything from toothpaste to fully armed battle cruisers (crew not included). It has bases across Human Space trading in with most nations and frontier worlds. Many colonies have lots of DCS items as the corporation is the main galactic supplier of colonial equipment. DCS also owns its own worlds and controls an entire system near frontier space which is heavily defended by DCS’ own battle cruisers. 

On the world of Dehlijeblli, DCS has a depot trading it’s wares with the locals and space crew traffic between the city of Urg Dehlijeblli and the space port. The Corporation security stops the depot from being looted and protects shipments from local criminals.

These figures are mantic GCPS figures that originally came from the Project Pandora box set. They were undercoated grey and given zenithal highlights. They were painted with Army Painter Speed Paints. These paints worked well with the figures and I had the base coats done in a couple of hours. A few bits of detail where added. This was a quick paint job. 

Thanks for looking.

Take care out there.

15mm goodies....

Welcome back to my hobby blog. Once again life has had me plate spinning. As a result I have not gotten as much hobby stuff done as I would have liked or found the time to record the bits I have got done here. 

One thing I have been plodding along with is some odd and ends for my 15mm science fiction stuff. I like working on the 15s I seem to rattle through my work. 

I was at a loose end and felt creative so I decided up knock up a couple of liquid storage towers out of junk laying about. One is for Water and the other for Fuel. 

These were quite easy to construct. The tank part are old bottle tops super glued together. The blue one has four bottle tops. The stands are those plastic things you get in take away pizza boxes which are supposed to stop the pizza sticking to the box lid. The pipes are drinking straws and there is some plastic card on the bases. 

Another addition is a Mad Max style wasteland cruiser. This was made in anticipation of the vehicular madness that would make a vehicle loon like myself drool (my dream job would be to build these movie vehicles). 

The car was a 1-100 scale car which you can bags of off evilbay. I chopped it up and added a mesh window. A mounted machine gun by Brigade gives the rig some fire power. The wheels are resin items by Zinge. I suspect they are supposed to be for 28mm equipment. But the work a treat as sand wheels in 15mm. 

This car will see action serving what ever group needs a escort or fast scout.

Every Freetrader needs something to run supplies and crew around. There are plenty of older designs laying about on frontier planets which can be taken and repaired.  

This is a Matchbox truck which had a quick repaint. 

The Mads tribals have gotten a support vehicle which I will use as a command option for them in Gruntz. 

This started life a 1/76 Puma Tank destroyer. I lost the gun added a roof and machine gun from Brigade. Some odds and ends from the bitz box where added to finish. 

The 24th Browncoats have another recon vehicle for their force. 

The 24th already have one of these so it seemed a good idea to give them a upgunned version. This is a Matchbox Safari landrover with mesh added and cloth doors made from putty. A autocannon from brigade was added for a bit of firepower. 

The forces of the Cyberdan got another Mech. 

I am not sure what this mini is. But it makes a great robot. 

The forces of the New Terra Alliance needed a command option so I built this walker. 

Twin autocannons and a multi barreled heavy machine gun should cause the enemy some problems. 

The legs are off a Combat Zone Robot, body some sort of GW 40K Tau combat suit. Beads make up the weapon gimbals. The weapons are off the Tau suit and donor plastic robot. Beads and other bits add small details. 

That's all for now. Thanks for looking. 

Cyberdan Corporation

My Wild Galaxy setting has many corporations operating in Human Occupied Space (less than a quarter of the Galaxy). Some are omnipresent across Human Space being found almost everywhere while others are limited to a Space Nation or a single system. As Wolfden is a trade hub many Corporations find it opportune to operate a depot on the world which the Government takes advantage of with Corporation Taxes. 

Introducing the Cyberdan Corporation.

Cyberdan is found across many worlds and is famous for producing Robot, Robotic, Cyberkenetic and Android systems. Whilst the Corporation likes to use fully automated systems where possible it still needs some human interaction. Those canny corporate Executives have found a way to save money by using Combat Engineers to provide a mix of tech support and security across its bases.  

Cyberdan operates a Depot out in the Wolfden outback. 

Cyberdan Combat Engineers. They often have fire support from grav sled mounted Autoguns (another Cyberdan item). 

The Combat Engineers are Black Hat PLA (Sci Fi Chinese) figures. 

Cyberdan employs lots of Robots too....

The Corporation makes many combat robots as well as utility bots. Cyberdan loves its Security bots to be of the intimidating large and Stompy variety. Robot are plastic EM4 robots. 

The whole Cyberdan Crew.

Cyberdan has recently equired about buying large areas of the Wolfden Outback and have been looking at the planets building regulations. This has the Wolfden government worried. What is the Cyberdan planning? 

Cyberdan is inspired by the Hyperon corporation from the Borderlands 2 game.
