Pretty cool. Going to have to check it out

Finished the brick kura and started on a shop

The shop is a bit too large as it is but I've altered the drawing and will re-cut soon. I'm carrying on with the first one as it seems pointless to bin it as it still works as a building.

AS with all my flat pack kits, the roof is removable and the floor in the shop is also removable (more on which later).

Shop first, just the front done for now...

And then the finished kura...

In about a week these will be on the website (which is going to have some changes to it

).

cheers

Made a coastal battery tht will fit with my other terrain boards and as soon as there are enough figures I'll get a game in

Blue foam construction, scored block work and then a thick texture of sand, filler and glue painted to match (hopefully) the rest of my boards.

Needs some guns and will make a start on them after our next show (Colours). There will also need to be some naval power and I'm hoping to make a couple of the paddle steamers that took part.

cheers

Great new items James, how big the range will be? And are there still more "normal" Victorian era buildings in the pipeline?

OSHIROmodels · « **Reply #22 on:** August 31, 2013, 07:51:56 PM »

Cheers matey

To be honest the range could be huge but as much as I would like to do it all it wouldn't be fiscally feasible

It probably won't stop me though

Working on a few more buildings at the moment but with normal work being so busy at the moment it's difficult to fit them in with everything else.

cheers

Wot he said!

Looking forward to these paddle steamers!

Where you gonna put 'em, though?
Have you been offered accomodation in the staff quarters at Malamute Mansions yet?

rokurota · « **Reply #26 on:** September 01, 2013, 11:08:14 AM »

I hope that you can get a game very soon...

Wow!

I have to follow this thread

OSHIROmodels · « **Reply #29 on:** October 19, 2013, 01:17:37 PM »

Something a little different for the period and probably not a kit but useful and fun nonetheless...

A steamship!

Loosely based on one of the British ships In the Japan area around 1862-63. Only the basic deck and a couple of guns assembled for now but I'll be in work tomorrow and will get the wooden deck, masts and hopefully the sides sorted.

The guns are from HLBSC and although I could quite easily make my own time is precious at the moment

It measures 560mm in length and 140mm across the beam although I think I might have to make it a little wider given the size of the guns.

More to follow tomorrow

cheers

James
