Those hills are the bees knees and useful in so many arenas of war. Superb.

I know!! If only I could source the correct type of bark chip! I've been at it on and off all afternoon and come up empty handed!  :'(

Few shots of the terrain lobbed together.
Must get a better camera than my phone.
Still….as the sun sets across the North West Frontier the Pathans gather for action…..

That is gorgeous work. I love the paintjob I really thought they were rocks and not tree bark at all. I am going to try and steal many of those ideas for my own NWF project. Inspirational stuff.

Lovely work Roger.

Do you think this stuff might be what everyone is looking for?

There are a few other suppliers of bark on there too.

Thanks Hobbit.
No it is too small '13-18mm'
There are sone 35-60mm bark bits available but some of the big bits I have used are 100-120mm
Smallest 30mm (ish) and all sizes in between

Really Impressive  :o :o I love how these all come together. I hope that there is more in the pipeline. Perhaps a series of sangars along a ridgeline?
