Konichiwa!
For the upcoming Tacitca in Hamburg (http://www.hamburger-tactica.de/) I'm planning to present some Sengoku-Period-Stuff.
More precisely: a rumble inside a monastery, even more precisely: in a Zen Garden. It's not much time till then, so time is right to post some previews here (and keep myself on the track of workflow).

The scenario will be played with SAGA and some homebrewn Battleboards.

First some of the miniatures that will be used:

Samurai Commmander

Ashigaru with Yari

Ashigaru Archers

Ashigaru with Teppos (hunting ducks)

Monks of course (need to paint a lot of them still)

And here some WIP on the terrain:

Home to see some of you in Hamburg for some Zen-Meditation

A really nicely painted set of miniatures, and that scenery is fantastic.

Great work! By the way, can you share the Battleboards?

Really nice! I also would like to see close up photos of the tree. The tori is damn fine too.

Thanx very much folks!

Here is how I made the tree:

the original piece is aquarium-decoration:

I put off all that plastic crap:

then I added new branches taken from the GW-plastic tree sets with some green stuff. The blossoms are from "miniNatur" (http://www.mininatur.de/).
The ready repainted result:

@rokurota: Yes, I can share the boards as soon as they are ready. I will do them in two languages and maybe in a shorter version for presentation purpose, too.
@marcusluis: The buildings are from: http://www.plastcraftgames.com/en/ so the roofs are included, but you need to cut rows in it to have the look like single roof tiles. I also needed to scratched all the grain in the wooden pieces... all of these come as flat pvc-parts.
@Comsquare: see you there
