From my favourite supplier in the field, Warbases, I shall be using their Modular Buildings and Extras; from Charlie Foxtrot a Renaissance tower; from Sally Forth a basic Tower with Italianate crenellations; from Sarissa a plinth from the Gangs of Rome series; from Foundry the Roman figure to proxy a statue; from Wills the plastic sheets of pantiles; and finally, from Supreme Littleness Designs the ornate widow. In addition Martin at Warbases cut me the 3mm MDF base and supplied some Roman stone window surrounds not usually available separately. I’ve taken some pictures of the probable layout, including a plan view which I hope will give an idea of the final piece ~

It will be great when painted !
ReplyDeleteGold idea the statue on the middle le the yard.
When hits the nail right on the head though...
DeleteSembra già alto Roberto the Builder
ReplyDeleteRoberto will need to be on double time I fear...
DeleteLooks already like a cool set up so when it's all painted up that will be quite impressive I would imagine!

ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain, I shall need lots of encouragement on this!
DeleteVery cool!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteA lovely piece of real estate sir...
ReplyDeleteAll the best. Aly
Thanks Aly, I hope it will prove a good project and not a lead weight...
DeleteAn idea I must pinch for my French Rev Wars in Northern Italy :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd no doubt yours will be finished long before mine!
DeleteVery nice, I like the way you get all this stuff to work together.
ReplyDeleteI must admit to being pleased that the pieces gelled better than I feared, though the tower will need some corrective work to fit the corner better.
DeleteA great project and a wonderful job so far, love the statue and the defensive tower...
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil! The tower has already changed, I’ve added windows and doors and an outside staircase. The front elevation has been textured too but I ran out of filler!
DeleteWhat a beautiful piece of kit. I hope you do get it done pretty soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray, I shall do my best when circumstances permit you may be sure.
