Once this is complete, I have to look at the practicality  of building the main wall that encompassed Son Tay, this is not as easy as it seems the overall shape of the perimeter was a kite shape and this will take up all of a War games table!!!!!!

Build it as the edge or a corner of your table?

Sturdy yet elegant construction, its geometrical features very well calculated! I like the stonework where the rendering has fallen and the weathering as well! Very nice!  :-*

The gates are accurate representations of  Vietnamese  gateway's  as are the Gate doors, the sweep above the North and South Gates are as seen in period de Lonlay etchings, the gun ports unify the lot

This is a truly inspiring piece of scenery! I can already see the Gringo range fighting for it.

Great painting :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
I don't think this would work as a corner piece, so just go ahead and build the whole town walls ;) ;) ;)

It was never meant to be a corner piece but the kite shaped perimeter walls are a huge build not in complexity but space wise...

I am looking with the builder Geoff  Lacey how to achieve the right look but saving space, meanwhile there is The Black Flag redoubt to consider, paddy fields, outlying  Pagoda and village dwellings!

Excellent finish  :-* :-* and so quick for the quality of the build! I look forward to your additional builds and to see them on your table.
