Issue 444 of Miniature Wargames has my third instalment of articles showing how I build simple and practical wargame terrain (buildings) from everyday or scrap materials using techniques that are well within the scope of any modeller.
The Log Cabin features a corrugated cardboard core clad with both egg box card and lollipop sticks to model a simple wooden structure that would be at home in a wide variety of different scenarios.
As stated this is the third instalment and I have included images of the two earlier buildings. Which were all built to the same set of self imposed rules;
1 - The model should be constructed from simply sourced or everyday materials.
2 - The model should be generic and able to be used in a wide variety of different games or genres.
3 - The model should be robust enough for wargame club use.
4 - The model should be finished to a good standard and resemble the building it represents.
5 - Finally, it should fit into a 6 inch x 6 inch x 6 inch box - for easy storage.
The Storehouse.....
The Thatched Hovel.....
I have at least one more model in the pipeline, but would welcome suggestions for future (and similar) tutorials.
