Nice!

The finished picture looks kind of like the soldiers are browsing some sort of 17th century car-boot sale....  :)

Thanks chaps.

I’m working on a big game - which may end up as a display game, or the basis for an article or series of articles, either in one of the wargames magazines, or possibly via my Bloody Miniatures website - for which these, and much more terrain stuff to come over the next few months, are intended.
More details once the whole scheme is fleshed out…


BTW, what did you use for the rust effect on the barrels, wheels and chains?

It’s just an ultra thin wash of burnt sienna oil paint diluted about 20:1 with artists white spirit  :)

Thanks Richard. I'll have to give that a try on something.

Wonderful barricades. I can't think of anyone else who would go to so much trouble, and or who would produce barricades which are so colourful. Works of art.
