About the Project

I wanted to document my project for The End is Nigh Terrain Challenge. So to start out I wanted to think of a theme, this was decided by the spares and miniatures I have that are sat in that forgotten pile in the corner. After a quick search I settled on some lovely miniatures I had picked up from White Dragon Miniatures. These don't currently have a ruleset or game system and so are perfect. I want to do a diorama based on a single infantryman staring down a street at a huge mecha which is laying waste to everything. The miniatures range is 15mm which really lends itself nicely to a diorama.

So after sifting through my spare miniatures I settled on 2 for my diorama setting.

Both are from the White Dragon Miniatures range.

A single MTU Alpha Fire Team Infantryman.

The second is a single Fiddler Mech with the alternate loadout.

A sharp blade and a rotary nail polisher.

So having cleaned up the miniatures I noticed the guns that go on the Fiddler’s Mech shoulders we’re a little bent. This often happens with resin as it cools and is easy to fix. After dipping the guns into hot water I gently massaged them on a flat surface until they were straight.

Really liking the scale difference.Really liking the scale difference.

I have only taken the assembly this far so I may clean the resin properly. I will now wash it in warm soapy water. In addition at this stage painting the various groups of components will be much easier.
