Updates on Terrain

These are some entrenchments I started to work on last week. The first was done walls made with barbeque skewers the second with balsa. The ground was built-up with scarp bits of foam board and covered with pre mixed “Spakfilla”. The ground cover is sand from the local golf course, which is course grained and gives better texture than fine grain. Sand bags are epoxy putty.

They are a bit of an experiment that turned out OK and were easier to make than I thought. The construction was done in one evening, painting the next. Other things have been placed on the backburner The AWI figures I wanted to finish in May will have to wait July.

Trench walls made from BBQ skewers a bit fiddly and time consuming.
Complete and in action. The figures are Valiant WW2 Germans.

Back view of second piece with balsa walls scoured with a ball point. Much easier than the skewers.
