Bunker Board Project pt.3.5 - last steps

I had a painting high yesterday and so I finished the remaining Bunker Board tiles in about 2 hours. This is great because now I am finished but it's also unhappy as I wanted to make some tutorial... But now it's too late to change and I am happy that I finished them. They look great and now I have time to get back to my Silent Hill Game board and finish this up. But for now some pics of the Bunker tiles with a little explanation.

Bunker Board Project pt.3.4 - step-by-step

Since today is good weather and the sun is shining I took the chance and made some pics of the next step on doing the boards... okay it's the next 3 steps but it was always dark when I got home so I couldn't make any good pictures but also wanted to get further in finishing these.

 

Bunker Board Project pt.3.3 - step-by-step

So here's the next part as promised. Gonna show you the seven tiles today and what I did on them.

So this is the one I showed how to make the walls. I added some wooden stems. Would also perfectly work as trench...

Bunker Board Project pt.3.2 - step-by-step

So today we're gonna add the walls. Not that hard but here we go:

 

First remove the cutted sections and lay them aside for later. Then take a pencil and go over the 5x5 grid lines to get some details into the floor...

Bunker Board Project pt.3.1 - Building the next 7 tiles step-by-step

So I managed to get me some more cardboard for the walls and as promised I will do a little step-by-step for these.

1.
First of all I cutted some 5mm MDF and 5mm Depron in tiles of 25cm x 30cm. Then I drew a 5cm x 5cm grid onto the Depron tiles, marked those areas that will be massive walls and cutted these out. Then I glued the Depron tiles onto the MDf tiles.

 

 Here you see the grid and the areas that are marked as walls (with that diagonal line)

Bunker Board Project pt.2.3 - Final touch ups

So it's been a while but I have to say real life was stressful these days. Finally got some pics from the final touches I did on the first nine tiles of the Bunder Board. ...but they are not really finished as is still haven't realized those tanks. Still don't know how to do them, maybe some of you have a idea?

Now without any further ado the pics

 I painted all the cables...

Bunker Board Project pt.2.2 - Painting algae/moss

So it is my first day of the Christmas holidays and I was not as lazy as I thought I would be.
I painted another layer of rust onto the rusty parts, painted the walls with green algae/moss. Here's what came out. The pics are taken with flash so the green looks brighter as it is in real life.

Bunker Board Project pt.2.1 - Painting the rust

So I started painting my little bunker board. As you already know I am lazy and so I didn't take any pictures from structuring with the sand/glue/black paint mixture I used, also no pictures from drybrushing with codex grey and no pictures from first layer of vallejo light rust. But I managed to take some pictures from the actual look with added boltgun and flesh wash. Next step is some vallejo dark rust followed by another soft layer of light rust again. The plan is to get those two layers done today. Maybe I also get it done to water some light rust down to add some further rust that should look like it runs down some walls from the pipes. The next step would be to paint the small cracks in the floor with some green to look like algae which I want to fill up with some water effect to look like puddles. I also wanna add some algae to the walls to represent high air humidity inside the bunker. After that I plan to paint the skulls that are laying around in some of the tiles. This is followed by adding the water effect stuff and finallly those tanks which I plan to be filled with some stuff, maybe some bodies from experiments or similar.

 

Bunker Board Project pt.1 - Building

This is my project that I want to have finished until end of this year.
A bunker gaming board with about 15 tiles if finished. I always wanted to have a such a gaming board and as I found this around the internet I knew that this is it.
It will only be suitable for skirmish games but as me and my gamer friends usually play skirmish games it's perfect.
Unfortunately I didn't make any pictures during building the several tiles but I have another 6 or 7 undone and I promise I will take some pictures during making them. So these are the first 9 tiles built and ready for a structure paint. One of the tiles holds some LEDs (the one with the clear tubes) and another one has built in speakers so you can connect you mp3 player or cell phone and listen to music during wargaming.
