Workbench: It's Harvest Time!

I sat down and cracked out some more terrain pieces and the outpost is really coming together.

In particular I like how the farms have turned out.

The crops are mounted in groups on bases so they can be removed to make positioning minis easier.  I was going to mount the plants individually but decided that doing rows of plants would be more easier to make and move around as well.

I also finished the roofs for the small and large hab units which really tied these pieces together nicely.  I'm still debating on signage for them but for now they are good.

Speaking of signs, I did put the Porta-Mat sign on the back of the transmat and then dirtied it up some.  A pretty minor thing but I like how it breaks up the flat surface on the backside.

Of course you can't have a farm without having an old farm truck.

Nothing too fancy but I thought it would be a fun touch.  On the back is one of the storage containers I'll be putting together.  For those who might not recognize it, it's the case that replacement blades for a Harry's razor come in.  I had been thinking about adding some plastic card to it but I might just slap a coat of paint on it to see how it looks.

I still have some more buildings to get painted but I'm going to finish those off next week.  That said I really like how it is all coming together from a visual point of view and the overall density of the cover as well.  Having things to break up line of sight is important in Antares and I'm looking forward to push around some miniatures again soon.

I need to pick up some storage totes to better store and transport my pieces but then I'll be shifting gears back to working on my minis.  It's been a couple of months now but I think that this has been a really good break for me.  Now the question is which faction should to look to expand first...  Until next time...
