28mm Yamashiro - All finished! (pic heavy) - Page 7

That’s a nice update. It’s interesting to look back and see what’s changed from the previous week.

Thanks 

Progress is low but steady. The yagura is now finished, apart from a few interior details, more on which later. It's been stuck and blended into the surrounding groundwork. Photos of the inside when the details have gone in.

I've also made a few bamboo palisades from JA09 in the 28mm catalogue and will also be making some slightly esoteric siege equipment.

I've been asked a few times about the colours used. It's quite simple, a sprayed dark brown primer followed by a light overspray of a lighter brown. Then drybrush up through Wargames Foundry's Base Sand triad with a big, soft brush. The panels are also painted with the Base Sand triad usually giving the last layer two coats to help solidify it somewhat.

I'll go through the groundwork details when I get to that phase

Didn’t get a chance to update last week but will do this week.

[OSHIROmodels]

Didn't do it that week but I have done now 

All the walls have been painted and attached. The watchtower ground floor has also been attached to the baseboard.

Next week will be the two barrack blocks, the gates and the final groundwork. The entrance bridge will be the week after those along with the entrance defences.

Photos have been taken inside from now on because of the inclement weather (well, it's certainly inclement here ).

I've had several people ask if the 15mm yamashiro will be following the same lines and the answer is yes but also there will be some larger buildings that are impractical for 28mm

That’s coming along nicely

Looking very nice.  I'm tempted to do some Samurai every time I see your stuff.  What rules do you use James?
