How to Make a WarHammer 40k Rusted Steel Shed

This past week I decided to groom my terrain range with an authentic rusted corrugated steel shed. As you all know I love manufacture warhammer terrain. Especially warhammer 40k terrain. I can make one in less than 90 minutes so let's get to it.
Here's a list of the materials we'll be using:

o A block of polystyrene (insulation foam) or regular Styrofoam

Warhammer

o 18 popsicle sticks

o 2 strips of cardboard 3 inches high and 12 inches long

(the whole of cardboard given to you in a pizza box would be more than plenty)

o Utility knife and scissors

o Paint brush

o Black paint

o Grey paint

o Brown paint

o Rust colored paint (or just a red and brown mixed could work too)

o Silver paint

o Green paint (something that resembles moss color)

I'd loved to see things look blown up and partially wrecked and destroyed, so if you've looked at the shed and said "man this looks undoubtedly beat up" you'll know it was made by Miniwargamer Dave. Kay, nuff talk and more building then wrecking I say. Let's get to it.

Step 1 put in order and cut the cardboard.

Cardboards are usually flat so you'll have to peel one layer of the flat sides off in order to expose the corrugated look of the inside. You'll see the corrugated part once you start peeling. Use a sanding block or sandpaper to sand off any excess bits in the grooves. You can size the cardboards strips any way you choose.

Step 2 Glue Styrofoam to cardboard

Cut 4 blocks of Styrofoam equal to the height of your cardboard strips and glue them together.

Step 3 Attach wooden rafters

What you are going to do is to glue down the popsicle sticks to the Styrofoam.

You'll have to glue 4 sticks underneath the 5 horizontal ones. Those I had to break at both ends then glue together and onto the Styrofoam blocks. Next is glue 10 sticks horizontally-5 on each side.

Step 4 prime the walls/roof with black

Next step is you'll have to prime your walls black. Cut and shape roof parts as beside the shed. Depending on the glue you've used the popsicle stick roof will be sturdy enough to drybrush a few accent colors. Use 2 shades of brown and a lighter green to seem moss. Next paint the Styrofoam grey to seem concrete.

Step 5 Paint on the rust ( the best part by the way)

Paint the walls a dark red for the first layer of painting. Don't worry about manufacture it exquisite because you'll be adding many layers. Next drybrush a dark brown. Finally drybrush a silver grey to inevitable parts only rescue a lot of the "rust" exposed. In the end you should end up with 2/3 rust 1/3 metallic color showing through.

Repeat the same for the roof . Then glue on the roof pieces. Let it sit to dry for a good 20-30 minutes.
