A skirmish somewhere in Normandy
« on: November 12, 2018, 07:40:54 PM »
Hi all,

Played a game of CoC last thursday and tought i would share some pics. Most of the scenes are reenacted as moving a tripod-camera around in the middle of a hard fought battle was unhandy... For all the terrain I got alot of inspiration from John Bond's blog and of course Silver Whistle's blog

I also try to reboot my blog so you can always find more pics over there and even more in the future.

Many thanks

Yes it evokes rural France well in a small space I think.
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Great table. How did you make the haystacks or are they bought?

a couple of wooden profiles glued to each other with PVA glue. Let it dry for a while. texture, paint and flock to desire. Then hot-glue lichen on top and with thinned PVA glue flock with Noch leaves.
