What about some buildings not unlike Masamune Shiroe's Appleseed and Ghost in
the Shell? The Arcologies from Appleseed would make a nice modeling project.
Though, likely those are for major planets and not smaller middle to small
colonies. Not a likely place for the Euries to be invading with out a hard
fight.

You said (someone...said) Futuristic structures... What would the NAC and
Japan have on its bigger (read as important) planets and on Earth, Arcologies.

Ohh. Not all that big. Say a 6x8 dirtside table. I figure a smallish one would
occupy about...oh 6"x10" or so and be 8" high (Hitomi says they are 800 Meters
high but with the extra width at the base and the slope 6x10x8 seems right)...
You could build levels or sections that are removed to represent parts of the
structure...A really big one) would take half the table....Yah know, I really
ought to take my own advice and build a few of these....Its really just a
bunch of half circle levels and a front mirror....
Now, I wonder where I can find a Briarios figure for Stargrunt....perhaps kit
bash some power armour?

The "Landmate" is a VERY old sculpt now, one of the earliest 25mm figs we
produced - it's not up to today's standards of detail etc, but we keep
it in production because it still sells! It was VERY LOOSELY patterened on
various designs from the first Appleseed book, including the Guges, but
without the sub-arms.
The "Not-Deunan-and-Bri" figs (GZ01 and 01A), on the other hand, are
(IMHO)
some of the nicest-sculpted pieces in our ranges, even though they've
been out many years now....
