My first project with Mold 3. Though it was done a while before the release, I waited for my shipment to take photos. One of the figs in grey armor in the tunnel is armed with a sci-fi shotgun (a modified Xeno). I will add picks of the modified gun in the mods thread later. Backstory: A gaping hole from an artillery shell is left in an alley road, revealing a hidden underground tunnel. It becomes a battleground in the sprawling war of the post-apocalypse. All images in the folder are public.

Wow, that is really good. I love the lighting, and the fire. EDIT: I would like to know the back story too.

I love the top pic! It looks like real fire. However, I would like to know the backstory, and the Brickshelf Folder is not public.

Great job. What I may ask is making the flames? An artillery shell perhaps?

Very nice! Great job with the flames. I just don't get the post-apoc feel though. Great job anyway.

Oh, so it's a flame thrower that's creating the fire.

The lighting is great, and how did you make the flamethrower? A Company 5th Platoon 6th Squad"Angels of Vengance"

That is an awesome vig! I love the flames and the figs.
The pen is mightier than the sword, they say... but they didn't count on the machine gun! I'm looking to make a Halo shotgun and sniper rifle. If you have any suggestions, could you PM them to me? Thanks. Look behind you.... You're about to be dead.

Thank you all for the comments. I hope to produce a post-apoc model for Brickfair in DC in August if I can make it there and don't blow too much money on Bricklink buying dark greys. It will have a tunnel section like this one. I'm not sure of the size the model will be yet, but I'm thinking 32 X 48 studs. We'll see.
