Somewhere along the line i acquired a box of Necrumundia Bulkheads. They've just been kind of sitting for inspiration to take over. Then it hit me, the ends look kind of like shipping crates doors, so i grabbed some plasticard and went to work.
I used 1.5 mm plasticard, and it takes about a sheet per container. I used some corner angle styrene to help keep the edges in place. It takes about 15 minutes to build each one. I could have used corigated side bits, but i plan to score the card and use a panel scriber to add detail instead.
these could also have been made with cardboard, but i wanted them to be a bit sturdier. I also added the I beams so they could interlock when you stack them.
I have molds of various bits, containers, crates and such that i'll use for the interiors.
The roof has been left unglued so i can look inside them if we want, i may also add LEDs to the interior at some point, because it's cool to actually be able to look inside.
