When I visited the Barrage show I picked up a copy of Battlegroup Torch, I intend to use this to organise my German and US forces until Battlegroup Italy is out. I have a plan to make some more hill pieces for my Spanish/Italy tables and thought wait a minute these would also be ideal for Tunisia, I would then just need a couple of buildings and a few palms for Operation Torch games. I remembered that I had made a group of buildings for the Back of Beyond display games, a bit of whitening up and they would pass muster for the more westerly regions. So here we go, I added an ornate window that Dave kindly gave me so I attached and painted that. Just a bit more weathering to do and hey presto!, although I may add a dome to the roof of the building next to the archway.
That looks excellent Phil!

Thank you Christopher. Glad to give it a new lease of life.
DeleteVery nice indeed, an versatile covering many periods 🙂
ReplyDeleteThank you Matt. Saves it languishing in the loft.
DeleteThat looks very smart Phil. I like your placement and treatment of the window.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dave, glad you like what I have done with it, the decorations are a lot lighter than the photo conveys.
DeleteLooks great, hoping to see it 'in play' on your blog soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul. I have a few chaps to paint before then but well on with the second German squad.
DeleteLooking fabulous Phil! I'm sure it'll do sterling service in its new surroundings.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nick. Yes looking forward to getting it in play again.
DeleteLooks great and the window is a very nice detail!

Thank you Iain. The window is a very nice piece, available from Supreme Littleness Designs.
DeleteExcellent work!
ReplyDeleteThank you Michel, just foamcore board covered with filler in the main.
DeleteVery atmospheric, love the window
ReplyDeleteThank you George, the window is a fine piece. He does some nice buildings too, almost impossible to get unless you can catch him at a show it appears.
