Thanks so much - the terrain is great, but it's always so much better when you can see the work behind it.

Thanks chaps for kind comments. I think you are probably right, it needs a bit of weed or grass or summat. Couldn't quite make my mind up about that, but think I'll go with the consensus view!  ;)

How exactly did you make those wicker things(forgot the name again)? I could use a decent way to make them.

They are called gabions - basically, ruddy great baskets packed with earth: very good at absorbing flying bullets and even cannon balls. These are metal ones made by The Assault Group, but lots of people make them in resin as well...


Now, I swear I've seen the house in the background on ebay just a few days ago..  ???


Yes, those buildings are by PMC Games / Sellthatstuffboy, who formerly owned Total System Scenic, but now trade exclusively through eBay. Not very detailed, but a solid, fast (and relatively cheap) source of instant villages...

Ah, oh yeah! Thanks for clearing that up.  :)
