Warbases Space Corridor - part one

Warbases have recently introduced their new Space Corridor range. This is a range of simple modular MDF corridor sections that can be assembled in many different arrangements to make up spaceships and planetary bases.

At Colours I bought one of their dead end corridor sections to see how they go together.

The kit is supplied in a plastic bag, but with no instructions. Here are the bits.
 I started by building up three sub-assemblies (the three walls). As you can see, the two side wall panels are identical, the how they are attached to the supports determine which is left and which is right
The right hand wall was glued in place first. The end wall then slots into place followed by the left wall.
 As you can see, the corridor is roomy enough for figures on 25mm bases, and their is sufficient space to put two figures on 32mm bases side by side. You probably could not get a dreadnought in their, but a Warlord Games M5 Jackal walker fitted both width and height wise (though it might have issues with doors).

View from above. As you can see, there is room for the figures and accessing them from above.
Not quite sure what the holes on the outside of the columns are for, but they do give it a nice stage set look.
Once the glue had dried, I gave the corridor section a good coat with Halfords grey spray primer. I then misted some Halfords black spray primer in corners, on the bottom of the walls on the outside and on to the floor. This was followed with some Citadel Corax white spray. The outside was given a further coat of Halfords grey primer.

Certainly an interesting idea, I will be picking up a few more later in the year.

They could do with adding some rooms and a starter set.
