I want to make my own drop pods for my Dreadnoughts. Anyone have any instructions or templates available?

i made my own pod for the GT this year, Nick named dumpy the droppod. Made from a water bottle, plasti-card and some doors, from the cityfight set, plus some monolith bits. Maybe Ragnar_burmane will post a pic as i did it for his army.

What I do now I do for the good of mankind.

LOL, they love ripping into me about dumpy. You got a free drop pod out of it didn't you

 

[Ragnar_Burmane]

That I did, and I am very grateful

Not bad for something made from random crap, by any means. It definitely beats the plastic dixie cups (also known as red/blue party cups) that seem to be the popular variety of drop pod around here.

I have a classic "Plumb-pod" mde out of a PVC pipe fitting and rounded endcap. Works for me

It could perhaps have done with looking like it had made more of an indentation in the ground but otherwise very nice.

The more that I look at this, the more I think that's an ingenious use of the Cities of Death sprue.

Sweet. Thanks. I think I'll get some parts together and see what I can come up with.

It's not great, but I did it in an afternoon.

Havn't got round to painting it yet. I'll try dig up the template for you.
