This is a project on a truly heroic scale. I too was deeply moved by the series in Battle magazine. I use card stock and wood glue over blue insulation board for most of my projects. I add texture with latex wallboard compound from the builder's supply. Your choice of MDF gives the advantage of a hard surface to work over.  I am excited to see how this project turns out. Keep up the good work! Most impressive!

Finally finished texturing and painting the main elements of the Dendermonde defenses.  Still need to finish off the Gatehouse but getting there.

Next up is working out exactly how I am going to do the grass on the Glacis and designing and cutting the causeway from the gate to the glacis via the demi-lune.

Very rough setup to see how it looks...

With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss
