I finally got the sand out and it was almost 280 pounds of it. After analyzing the new war room it will have a wall for each terrain. There is actually a little more room in it so there is no reason it should not be better. I will be using the same sand to start the beach and there will be an underground base for cobra in the mountains, sort of a cobra la without the la. I will be working on a side project before the next assault that I think you all will enjoy. It gets started this weekend so I'm hoping to have it done by the end of next week.
BLOOD out. |

CAUTION: Thread is picture heavy
POLL ADDED 1/31/09: After looking at some pictures cast your vote as to who you think should have won the assault. Did the Joes hold it down (like they always do) or did Cobra finally get the best of them? I figured this would be the best way to end it. Add some reasons why you feel that way if you have the time. The parting shot is on page 9. UPDATE 1/24/09: The assault is almost over. I am moving soon and will be starting a whole new set up but will be keeping to the same theme and dare I say - BIGGER. I appreciate all the positive responses I have gotten. Enjoy, I have. Here is my 25th collection ( at least the opened ones ). I figured since I live near a beach it only made sense to do a scene like this. It is fairly ghetto though. I really just threw boxes down and made a corny background but I did truck in the sand and rocks to give it more life. All this was made under $100. I just got basic supplies and went with it. It was a fun project. EDIT: Photo's are on all pages except 2. I updated the majority of them but have not updated the photobucket link. My personal favorite: the Viper being pulled off the boat. It's great action! I also like the way you managed to hide the figure's legs by creatign a clever "splash" using cotton---CLEVER!

Multiple settings next to each other is a really great idea--I'm surprised more people haven't done it. You said it was simple & not too expensive, but it totally works: when I see the figures there, I see them in the real environment: snow, sand, water etc: WELL DONE!
My personal favorite: the Viper being pulled off the boat. It's great action! I also like the way you managed to hide the figure's legs by creatign a clever "splash" using cotton---CLEVER! Haven't checked this thread in a while. Thanks for the positive feedback storymodeller. The viper getting dragged down was one of my favorites too. I am slowly working on the next one. I am making a Cobra Island first and going from there. It has been sized up and now I just need to get on making things. It will most likely be ready around my birthday in June. The alpine section should be bigger than the last with a lot more action. I finally completed my MASS device so it will be in an underground base in the mountains. Side note. I noticed since my last poll post Cobra has taken the lead 36 - 35. Coooobbbbbbrrrraaaa! |

Give it a bump for old times sake. 50 - 50 in the poll. My homie put in my vote by accident. I wasn't going to get involved in the poll. Thanks for participating.
