Versatile Combat Wombat Vehicles

Hi, everyone. A while back I made a little forward base using Combat Wombat Defense Turrets and with pods from the Bullfrog Lander and the Command/Medic pods made for use with the Atlas LSS GEV. I was struck with all of the possiblities you can have mixing and matching the different Combat Wombat turrets, pods and other components. I've gotten a few of the Atlas LSS GEVs and some of his new additional turrets. I'm really having a lot of fun seeing what I can come up with using all of these components. I still need to paint the turrets and the new Atlas vehicles. Here's some pics.

Here's a few pallets of cargo made from Ground Zero Games Store Pallets and JR Miniatures Fuel drums

Next series of pics below show an Atlas with a Command pod with the various different turrets added.



Pic below shows an Atlas with a defense turret base. The defense turret could be cargo or perhaps part of the hull of the vehicle.

Next two pics show a SLAM and an ATGM


It's amazing what a lot of unique vehicles you can end up with by mixing these components. I think Combat Wombat really knocked it out of the park with these. I'm looking forward to painting them up, and I still want to add some more CW Grav Vehicles, and eventually some tracked and wheeled vehicles. Thanks for looking.

Back to Bloggin

Hi, folks. I'm back to blogging. I started a new second job back in November and was able to pick up a bunch of shifts during winter break and on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I ended up with a bunch of 6 or 7 day work weeks in a row, so didn't have much time for anything but work and sleep. Now the schedule has slowed down some and I actually got to work on some projects. Here's what's first in the pipeline:

Small 15mm forward base/fort: made from plaster castings from an Ikea ice cube tray, Hirst Arts bricks and crowned with Combat Wombat Miniatures Defense Turrets (scroll down about 1/3 of the page. I'm also using the Combat Wombat Command Bunker, Command/Medic pods and the new pods from the Bullfrog Lander for the base buildings.

Sorry no pics, yet, maybe tonight.

Thanks for looking,
