Gypsy wagon
« on: February 18, 2012, 10:37:11 AM »
We are starting a little informal Chaos in Carpathia Campaign here in Berlin and I thoughed I needed some more terrain for the theme...

I started with a Gypsy wagon. I know Westwind makes a really good one, but I wanted to do one my own...

The wagon is of 1,5mm plasticcard and the victrix napoleonic limber (wich I didn't use anyway).

First the wagon in pieces and a miniature for size reference.



Here you can see the victrix-limber and  the cabin put together.



More chopping in plastic... :D



The wagon put together and a cannon aranged as a stovepipe.



I did't want to put a horse infront of it (it's supposed to be the center of a little Camp), I fixed some boxes under the towing bar.



Next stage were the timeconuming details...





And with some paint an it...



All I need now are some Gypsies... lol

Lovely bit of work, both painting and the scratch building/converting. :)

Have just seen this and prostrate myself before your immense scratch-building abilities.
