Kierdale Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 A couple of weeks ago, I think it was on Instagram, I found the company `Battle Kiwi`, that makes pre-primed laser cut terrain (some with cool acrylic inserts/bits) plus tokens, templates and stuff. Here's their website: https://battlekiwi.com I recommend checking their site. It was the `Immortal Dynasty` series (#cough#Necrons#cough#) that grabbed my attention as I'm modeling my Orks fighting on a Tomb World. I got myself a `Nexus Sentinel` for NZ $25 (pretty good, I think) which is 6 1/4" tall and 3 1/8" wide. It arrived in the post today and the MDF was nice and smoothly primed black. The clear acrylic sheets are covered in a protective film on both sides to protect them, which is a nice touch. The MDF pieces came out of the sheets easily and it was easy to put together as a dry-fit. I'm going to spray the MDF bits metallic before I actually glue it together though. Oh, another nice thing is that you can put a light inside (just don't glue it to the base board, so you can get to the light when you need to....or cut a whole in the baseboard. CORRECTION: there’s a hole already!). I might do that. Or stick some glow sticks in there... Anyway, I thought I'd draw attention to the company as I'm well impressed with it so far. I'll post a pic when I've finished painting it. MithrilForge, Magos Takatus, Imren and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 Here’s mine after I hit it with the airbrush (black first to do the edges and the crevices, then MIG-192 Polished Metal): Next I’ll be weathering it Mars-ish before putting it together. pawl, RikuEru, MithrilForge and 5 others 8 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kierdale Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 Okay. :) I already put the same contents in my own Terrain thread here in the WIP forum so you can close this thread if you like. I made this one in News for the purpose of directing people to the creator, letting them know about the new resource. I just sent BattleKiwi a DM on twitter now suggesting that they make a thread in N&R on the B&C as, as the creator, that would be appropriate, no? I've seen other bitz manufacturers promoting in threads there (then again, I've been off the B&C for about a year, things may have changed).
