Looks good, never realised they were ACW.

Hope the manky cold remains as described and doesn't coagulate into the sort of congestive mess I've had for a week...

They work for me, mate.
Good idea.

And good to see that you are struggling on manfully through this cold.....although I thought Northerners didn't get colds....or are you getting soft now that you have moved down here??

Great conversion!

By the way, are you forgot the clan emblem on left sleeve?

The building looks great, and the timing of the shogunate artillery is uncanny as I recieved my Armstrong gun couple of days ago to convert to shogunate. Your conversion will be far superior though and I will copy many of your ideas if that's okay

Great work with the artillery chaps!

It's quite malleable as well once you get the chlory on it.

Steal away as it was you who gave the idea for the ACW gunners

Chlory?

Had never thought of using styrene in this way so keen to pick up any tips.

Dichloromethane, basically Plastic Weld. A plastic solvent in liquid form applied with a brush (preferably).

Interestingly, trichloromethane is chloroform

Inspired by Olyreed's desire to do a Boshin demo game next year I did a bit more on the large warehouse.

I've made the doors and hinged them (of which much swearing took place). The brass rod is 1mm with a 0.5 hole in it and the hinges themselves are 0.5mm piano wire... They were a shit to stick on but they work
