Simple Homemade Drop Pods
Now that the drop pod has a normal kit, this project might not be that useful but if you want to make a drop pod battle company for a friendly apoc game it might be helpful. I made up about 10 of these last summer for such a game. Total cost was less than 1 GW pod. I bought a bunch sandcastle molds, drilled vent holes in the top, covered holes with wiremesh, cut the bottem lips off, and spray painted purple to match my army. I just need to get some transfers on them for labels. Simple but about the correct size and excellent line of sight blockers.

Pretty good substitute mate! Nice idea
ReplyDeleteAwsome idea! They look really good - Can we see a picture of all 10 of them together with your army? I bet they look cool as a group
ReplyDeletePaul, Remember that the rest of the army is not painted other than the 3 tac squads shown yesterday. It would probably ruin the effect.
ReplyDeleteLike you said, perfect for an Apoc game where you want to drop 10 plus squads.
ReplyDeleteFantastic! Looking to make a few myself for Salamanders.
