Great work.

Time for some pics of the finished model. I won't describe at great length how the fort was "painted", let's say it was a mix of using tile adhesive, plaster, some colour washes and only a minimal amount of drybrushing. Some parts needed several applications with tile adhesive, others several shades of different off-white tones. At any rate it was a learning process. Finished with two layers of flat varnish.

Yesterday the hillfort went through its baptism of fire on our NWF-table at the Crisis show in Antwerp. Our first opportunity to see the complete table with all components. We did a lot of pictures, two following for a first impression, more at a later occasion.

That came out beautifully and the table as a whole is very impressive.

The fort turned out fantastic

Painted up it looks just like one of Chris's buildings. A very nice homage.

Love your terrain.
So well done.
Thanks for sharing how you constructed your terrain.

Fantastic Admiral!

Are you thinking of putting the Hillfort on some kind of base? It might be nice to see it with some kind of stones and rubble around it, the same as the rocky outcrops.

A brilliant outcome! Makes me want to build a manorhouse for my medieval project too!

That's the plan, Andy ...

Thank you all for your nice comments, much appreciated!

Any adjective I can think of is simply an understatement
