Aspern Essling building base 3 - Finished pics page 2
« on: 27 August 2018, 08:47:18 PM »
So, onto the next one in the commission. This one is actually historically accurate for the Essling portion of the campaign but can still be used throughout Europe.

This is the general plan but the scale has been reduced a bit to fit it all on the required base size (all that means is the buildings are a bit larger and one of the sheds is missing.


The buildings are done with exception of the chimneys. I'll be sticking them down and sorting out the ground work in the next couple of days. It'll mostly be walls in between the buildings but there will be a couple of fences. The yellow building isn't as bright in real life.






cheers

James

Very nice.  This is what the buildings in the villages on the battlefield look like.  Very, very nicely done!

Very nice start. The layout looks like it works for gaming whilst being a good representation of the original. What size is the baseboard, about 450mm square?
