But it lokks really cool. Did you cut the wood sticks in pieces and then put them back together to form a column or did you just scratch them in those places? I have one of those sticks lying around and have been wondering about that...

the long columns were not cut. Just divided into 3 sections with a small saw, to form le line separting each section of the column.
The small part (one section long) were cut to the require size.
i keep the construction as simple as possible because my time is counted !

Thanks for the quick answer. That's the technique I wanted to try and it's cool to see that it does look really good.

no no, only polystyrene, like the cubes.
All wrap with paper handkerchief coat with varnish-glue. It's make the polystyrene  stronger and hard ! I made my rock with it too (on the pics they are not finished).

Are these figures generally available in French toy shops? I'm asking because we are off to Brittany soon for our holidays. I'm sure I could manage a couple of purchases by bribing Mrs Maximus with a nice bottle of red wine ;)

yes, the tube could be found very easy in a good toy shop like that ones of the group PICWIC :

Very nice work! I love the look. I am such a fan of ancient Greek mythology. I would love to game it with terrain that looks like that.
