WIP: Wagons, Gabions, Hay Ricks and Corn Stooks #2

I carried on with these today and got all the way to matt varnishing the gabions, hay ricks and corn stooks. For the gabions I could have skipped doing a spray basecoat as I ended up painting all the parts in different colours anyway. I think I should probably have skipped the first dry-brush step on the gabions themselves as it seems to have merged the colours a bit too much and you can't really tell the difference between the earth and the wickerwork. Oh well, too late now.

I have given the wagons a Klear/ink coat but I'm holding off on the matt spray varnish until I've done the basing.









And here's a pic of the danish artillery, supported by the Green-Blue and Green-Red regiments of foot occupying a redoubt in front of the hay rocks and corn stooks:

  8. Cheers folks. I'm quite pleased with how they've turned out and definitely tempted to order more bits from Timecast.

    @ MP and Ray - I couldn't resist doing an "in use" photo. Glad you liked it :)

  9. Very nice. Too few gamers devote the proper time to terrain, and it makes such a difference.
