- British fort
- 3 jungle trees
- Some bushes
- The riversteamer "the queen of Argyll" sandbags and upperdeck added
- Shanty town (15-20mm) now with some hardboard bases
Here's my British colonial fort, the fort is entirely build out of wood. More specified, twigs, wooden sticks and lots of woodchips. The fort is based on a soft sort of hardboard which can easily cut with a metalplier.
The fort isn't based on real colonial forts but is just a kind of blockhouse with an exterior artillery emplacement. The fort exists out of 3 levels, the floor, second level and flat roof of which there are two playable. The exterior artillery emplacement is walled with some twigs I've sawn to the same size.
The basic construction.
The side of the fort with firing holes.
A photo with some plastic 28mm British who are manning the outer defense line of the fort, this place will be used to place some artillery, gardners or gatling guns.
And at last some new jungle trees, you can never have enough of them! Here you can see them in the first fase of construction, twigs just glued to their hardboard base and textured with fine white sand. The most difficult stage of making these trees is to find the right shaped twigs! Now my special twig stash is used up.

Good progress, the fort looks very good indeed.
Thanks Paul! I'm looking forward to see your calais project in his full glory on the tabletop.
Greets,
The outside could be... for.. a garden of gatling guns!... heh.
:p, maybe they must grow their own vegetables or tea!
Greets,
