28mm Bastogne Board Commission
« on: 16 March 2017, 03:07:05 AM »
So if you're subbed to my Facebook page (if you're not, the link is in the sidebar...*hint, hint*), you'll have seen my progress on building a full gaming board based around the Battle of the Bulge on commission. The client wanted a full board, with protected sides; one side consisting of pine forest on a ridgeline and the other side consisting of a town at a lower elevation. To break up two dense terrain on either end, the middle portion would consist of open fields divided by low walls and fences. To provide extra cover in the open fields, I added some artillery craters.

WAY more pics and info in the post below:

Very nice work - that's (hopefully!) going to a very satisfied customer.
