Forward Outpost
This has taken about two weeks all told, with a break for the Warhawk during drying time.
Roughly a 14" x 14" square, the central construction was one of those vac-u-form bases you used to get in battle-sets from Esci (El Alamein in this case). I plastered up the edges and did any repairs required, then rough painted with cheap acrylics, added some sand bags and log barricades and lots of various flock and foliage. One thing I have learned is I need to buy a better spray glue - d`oh!
Not a masterpiece but functional.

Nice idea. I still have a number of thesefrom Rocco, esci and alike. Im thinking about cutting them and using small parts like redoubts and trenches.
ReplyDeleteThat is what i decided to do here, I cut away the flat bit and kept the trenches
DeleteThat looks great- I love pieces like that.
