The Drinking Hole (Terrain)

My entry for the 2019 3rd Quarter's Necromunda Terrain Marker Terrain Competition is starting to take shape.  The theme is "Drinking Hole". The rules are pretty flexible: entries can use kits, be scratch-built or whatever... it's more about creativity and encouragement than anything else. Here's some of the competition's Facebook blurb:

"Let's go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for this all to blow over."

Reeking of liquor, sweat and blood, a drinking den is where many hivers go to numb their sorrows, or to find their courage at the bottom of a bottle of Wildsnake or Second Best.

Whilst the "Hole" implies a small-scale location, I've got something a little grander in mind.  Since I've been playing with Lost Patrol recently, and further to my Yakult terrain build from earlier this year, I've found myself liking the idea of making a collection of terrain pieces that can be re-arranged to suit a specific scenario... terrain that lends itself to integration.

So what I'm attempting is a collection of walls that can be used placed to describe a variety of configurations.  Those walls will be complemented by some thematic, set pieces used to anchor the particular game/scenario e.g., some machinery for a factory or a vehicle for a depot.

I'm intending on creating enough walls to fill at least a 12x24-inch footprint.  The wall sections - all of which are baseless and free standing - are largely in the region of 4 to 6-inches long.  And to get a sense of continuity in the build, I'm using metal mint tins throughout.  I've been collecting them for a while now and just recently a good mate gave me his haul, so I've plenty of base materials to work with.

During my last build - the Hab Block - I arrived at a method for creating walls/floors using a foundation piece of acrylic, then covering the same with layers of tape - masking, medical/sports, electrical, plaster/drywall, paper and whatever I can find lying around my shed.  Those layers, once undercoated, make for a suitably, grimdark base that readily takes drybrushing etc - the end result looks surprisingly good relative to the little effort involved.

I've made about a dozen wall sections so far, around half of which have had their first lick of paint as of today.  It's starting to come together which is always satisfying.

All those wall sections are movable - allowing me to reconfigure on-demand.
I wonder if I could make them work for Spacehulk?
What you see is about half of the collection - the others require some more
gubins and paint (I ran out of rattle-can black!)

The mint tins add a sense of continuity to the build which is always welcome.

It can't be grimdark without pipes!

And it's all about the details: what's a Drinking Hole without a toilet/WC/bathroom?  Well, that might be the last concern in the underhive, but for some reason, I'm going slightly upper-class.  I give you both the Grimdark Pissour and the Golden Throne.  They're still works in progress, but I can think of all sorts of shenanigans for the future...
