Some Perry ACW terrain put together
« on: September 15, 2018, 09:29:34 AM »
The Perry ACW 28mm Battle in a Box set includes a dwelling and some snaked fencing.  This has been put together and the opportunity taken to also get some cross and rail section from Renedra that have beel primed and laying around for ages. The terrain is being put together with a small table in mind.

There are shots and comments over on the bog. LINK

That looks very effective. Nice weathering on the wood.
Enjoying the game is ALWAYS more important than winning the game.

You've done a great job on that. I bought it when it first came out, but couldn't get on with that building at all. Didn't seem to fit together quite right, and was also decidedly titchy. I sold it on.
But yours looks good  :)

The Perry’s farm building, fencing and clapperboard church are all great ,useful,  generic items for the FIW and the ACW . I mounted mine on an 18” sq of MDf .

Thanks all, the texture on the building is good, so it does all the work for you. My units have a frontage of just 6" so the small footprint and low profile of the building is appreciated. I didn't take a huge amount of care over painting this and sometimes I think that sort of looser approach can help.
