Terrain is everything – Adeptus Titanicus Ruins MDF kit – TO DONE! 🔴

You actually get 12 ruins for around £15 [after postage] which I thought was great value. 4 small buildings, 4 medium - big enough to hide a Warhound, and 4 large which are as tall as a Warlord!

Now I added a few extra bits of detailing here and there. I cut 6mm strips, scored them down the middle and used them to cap all the corners.

This hid all the finger joints that are synonymous with MDF terrain. I also used wooden coffee stirrers to cap the roof edges too.

Bases had a small amount of rubble and you can see I followed my 40k terrain colour scheme of the TT Combat terrain and the Sector Imperialis Administratum.

Rather than leave the interiors plain cream I had a bit of fun painting in strips. These are where internal walls and floors had been and wouldn't have been painted. 

With their destruction I suspect you'd see something like this. It wasn't too hard to do but adds so much.

This medium ruin had some extra detailing around the roof. A 5mm card strip to hide the slot the the roof piece is attached to.

Then a small Aquila from the Space Marine Drop Pod kit. I thought about painting more of the Blessed Verdigris 🗽 but wanted some buildings that had no additional spot colours.

But yeah, the insides are still a huge contrast to the exterior.

This medium building was customised with some 'sprue' pieces from my TT Combat ruin.

I kept all these crenelated finger join pieces as I knew them may come in handy.

It's a bit over-engineered and clunky but it does add a little something to the overall building to make it different.

I won't be able to create another as I have run out of that bit of sprue.

I also added some mounting card floors in some of the tall buildings. Easy to do and adds a lot. However, it does mean you can't store them like Russian dolls - stacking the small corner piece inside the medium, inside the tall. 

It's an inconvenience but worth noting if you wanted to do something similar.

I considered verdigris and additional vertical and horizontal strips but with the laser etched cracks I didn't want to obscure the details already provided. 

Also, with this going on Otty's grey board too many colours were going to look odd. I mean the red terrain was probably already going to look out of place. Although buildings are all different colours on all different surfaces so maybe not...

I must say all the crack details were a tedious task and although it works it's probably the wrong scale. This would be far better on a 40k building whereas this epic scale these cracks are the size of tennis courts!
