Guess I'll have to run out there during the week then. I've got a comp day coming may as well take it.

Updates from this weekend. First a family shot of the industrial stuff. Next step will be sanding the edges of the MDF, and basing them in gravel.
Now a little closer pics
Then some samples shots of the modular pipe fixtures. I need to cut some more shorter length pipes, the longer ones aren't going to cut I don't think:
As always comments and criticism welcome. I bought a 45deg angle cutter this weekend so the next building I do will be using that. I think I'm going to order the Foamwerks 'V' cutter. Then I can just cut long strips and use the V cutter to create cuts I can fold into shape.

Another sample of the modular pipes...stupid 4 image limit...
I love the idea of those pipes. How do they scale though, in terms of LOS? Seems like they would block eye level, but leave a lot of body in sight. Terrain is all looking great though!
Damn, that looks really good.

Ooooh, let's make a replica of the Total refinery in Port Arthur. The view from the top of the main fractionating tower was awesome, perfect for snipers.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
that comes off waaaay creepier than it was suppose to, unless...OH SNAP!Originally Posted by MarkT
Pfft - math. ROLL 6's PROBLEM SOLVED.with 40k its best to get the rules straight then apply imagination and rationalize; you will only get annoyed doing it the other way round

I'll try to get a shot up with actual Infinity models up this week with a comparison of how much they actually cover. I'd have to check but rules say models must be in base contact and a portion of the model must be obscured. I have enough common sense to say that a model directly behind the pipes would qualify as based. Worst case you could call the whole area low visibility and get that bonus.
I started working on the same kind of system for ground level pipes as well, same kind of modularity, so a table could have both the high pipes, and a ground level set as well. I may need to get some more fittings and a another length of PVC to finish that off though. I need some more corner pieces, a couple of three way pieces and some end caps I think. Also some more two-ended female pieces. I might build some sci-fi pallets with a fitting on each that can bet stacked up I need to work on a pallet frame some time.
This stuff looks great Shannon. You should check out Plastruct's catalog. They have a lot of pre-made refinery stuff http://www.plastruct.com/pages/Catalog.html I think it would add that level of polish you may be looking for.

If I tell you, "You're wrong," you'll need to click this.
Does anybody else find it odd, by the way, that the information age has led to language becoming an oblique and imprecise tool where even the most straightforward phrasing is pored over with chicken entrails and bone tossing to divine the true meaning?
Good Link I'll have to grab their catalog when I get to the house. I was looking at the Pegasus chemical refinery kit as well. I think I could break the pegasus kit down for parts and some pieces are already scaled somewhat correctly. http://www.thewarstore.com/product18602.html
