Building a 1:600 scale airfield (Part5) Scratch Built Buildings

I wanted to create a few representative military looking structures to embellish my airfield so here is a selection:

Weapons store

Made from appropriately shaped polystyrene packaging inserts, asymmetrically cut, stuck to a 20x20cm cardboard base with 'No More Nails' glue and stippled to create a grass texture

 

After priming it white the Grass was painted in

The concrete was painted grey and I then added in a roadway using a Microsoft word creation

These are the types of things I was after

Command bunker

Made out of an instant coffee jar lid 

Lid stuck to base and the polystyrene layers added and result stippled with No More Nails



Base sprayed white and grass area added

 

Final concrete finish

Securing s base to the construction

Small Bunker complex

Made from another polystyrene infill

Black infill based and then stippled with No More Nails



White polystyrene inserts added for 'concrete' fronts




Painted grass and concrete added



 Storage Bunker

This time made from a clear plastic blister mould for my son's 'Ben 10' watch

Based and surrounded by polystyrene then stippled

Grass painted on after base spraying white



'Igloo' and paths painted to represent concrete. 'Outbuilding' uses the strap buckle cover
