Dr H<p>To fill the interior of this example build of my hut kit I created a diorama of sorts.</p><p>Someone has been busy cooking up something in bathtubs (also my casts) and pumping it into a storage tank.</p><p>But things did not go well and the tank ruptured and blew out the side of the hut.</p><p><a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ScaleModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScaleModel</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ModelKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ModelKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/GarageKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GarageKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/TabletopTerrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TabletopTerrain</span></a></p>
Dr H<p>Closer looks at the structure of the hut kit example build.</p><p>The wall panels are interchangable and invertable, as are the posts inside. This was a design choice to avoid repetition in the wall surface.</p><p>The doorway and window can also be placed anywhere around the wall of the hut.</p><p><a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ScaleModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScaleModel</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ModelKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ModelKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/GarageKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GarageKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/TabletopTerrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TabletopTerrain</span></a></p>
Dr H<p>In addition to the modifications to my hut kit, I also scratchbuilt a rooftop lookout.</p><p>Bits of sprue for the frame and some textured plasticard.</p><p>Will fit a 40mm base and gives good cover for your average 28mm scale miniature.</p><p>And it's removable. </p><p><a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ScaleModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScaleModel</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ModelKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ModelKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/GarageKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GarageKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/TabletopTerrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TabletopTerrain</span></a></p>

Dr H<p>I designed these boxes to be hollow so that you could leave a side off and fill it with stuff.</p><p>The sides are also thin enough to be "damaged" by a hobby knife or clippers.<br>But they are sturdy enough for gaming purposes.</p><p>And the moulded texture makes them easy to paint with a base coat, wash and dry-brush... or even those fancy contrast paint things.</p><p><a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/TabletopTerrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TabletopTerrain</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ScaleModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScaleModel</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ttrpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ttrpg</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/boxes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boxes</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/GarageKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GarageKit</span></a></p>
Dr H<p>As designed, the door for my hut kit includes a hinge and can be opened.</p><p>This allows you to see what you have placed inside, as an alternative to a removable roof... or a big hole in the wall, which you can also have with a little modelling skill.</p><p><a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ScaleModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScaleModel</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ModelKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ModelKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/GarageKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GarageKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/TabletopTerrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TabletopTerrain</span></a></p>

Dr H<p>This hut was built from mainly mis-casts of my multi-part wooden hut kit. With a few scratchbuilt parts to give it "life".<br>28mm (1:56) scale.</p><p>The kit were made for me to learn about model kit production and see if it was a good direction to go in.</p><p>This model stands as an example of what can be achieved with my kit, and a little skill.</p><p><a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ScaleModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScaleModel</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/ModelKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ModelKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/GarageKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GarageKit</span></a> <a href="https://warhammer.social/tags/TabletopTerrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TabletopTerrain</span></a></p>
