I’ve made a few of these as well, and just like you I was surprised how long the edge-strips took me. By far the most tedious part. Your idea to have a single continuous piece probably ends up looking better than mine. So even if it took a bit longer, if it’s gonna be tedious anyway, might as well do it your way and get the best effect!

Yeah, I just found it took me longer than you'd think for something so relatievely simple. I think as you say it's the detailing, the door and the strips. I hit that classic point of getting annoyed with them and just wanted to finish them! Thanks for watching :)

Come join the facebook group, all the cool kids are there and I'd love to see your stuff! facebook.com/groups/450820895603289

I think you did a great job Jay! I especially like the rust effects and the lettering. I have seen containers in all sorts of conditions from new to quite rusty so yours look very realistic. Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks, I didn't go with anything crazy, it legit is just a little bit of brown stippled, and a little bit of a dark brown silver stippled in place. I wanted gritty but not like completely ruined. My pleasure as always.

Just made my first one today and I’m so happy with the result! Thank you so much for the guides. I’m new to the hobby and my goal is to make a tables worth of terrain for each faction, so my Aeldari can “visit” the worlds of each army they face - so I have a bunch of your videos saved to follow!

great looking containers! A little hint, I learned the other day. If you cut the corrugated cardboard from the backside, you don't squish the corrugation

Top notch, Jay. I made these last summer using my wife's essential oils boxes. I essentially did everything that you showed in the video! My stenciled letters came out frosty, too. Oh well. Thanks for the inspiration. Cheers, --Bo

I think the frosting is unavoidable with the coregated card but not a big issue if you know if it's going to happen :-)

Great job. Simple and Direct. Great painting job.

Thank you very much. They are a classic, I think they look good in manner locations, so worth doing. At some point I might make more sci fic versions!

The template for the edge-strips is good - I don't know is it has been mentioned earlier, but I would suggest scoring and folding the card _before_ cutting out. If you cut first, it is a nightmare to fold thin strips of card. Some of these are definitely on my *To-do* list.

Hey, yeah I sort of agree wit Legion, it's not like sci fi enough for it. I was tempted to do like an x sci fi design but I might do more in the future like that.
