Another Work in Progress Report

WSince the last WiP report much has been completed.

 

First of the blocks is a battalion of Russian line jägers – there is one more battalion of these to go. I have struggled a bit with these and they certainly are not my best work.

 Second is the second unit of Opolochenie – wonderful figures, full of character. Again there is another unit of these to go.

 

Third is the store house for the East African Railway Station set. This was in danger of being quite a bland piece, so I created some interest by providing lots of different textures.

 

Here is the completed set.

 

Fourth and final is a group of East African bush/jungle pieces. These have been building up over the last month or so. These 15 pieces were made from less than a single “sheet” of the plastic foliage. I have another two sheets to go, so I hope that when completed, over the next few months, I will have close to 80 pieces, or about 6 linear meters. The idea is that these irregularly sized and shaped pieces can be grouped in any number of combinations to create a maze of bush or jungle. By leaving gaps between the pieces tracks and paths can be represented.

 

On the table at the moment is:

•  The next batch of Russian jagers – the final battalion.

•  More bush/jungle pieces

•  The first of the next batch of East African Buildings – one of two plantation houses.
