The Roman town is growing! |
With Little Wars coming up soon (April 24-27, 2025 in Lisle, Illinois) it is time to put the metal to the peddle and really focus on getting my Hannibal terrain finished. I also have one 32-figure unit of Italian allies to paint.
A number of my Roman houses were only partly finished. They needed painting and the attaching of their roof and I had been putting off this task over the past month. The building shown below is probably the most complicated structure that I have built so far. The deck/balcony requires extra work and precision fitting of its components. At the last minute I also decided to add the little structure tacked onto the second floor of the building (shown on the left side of the below picture). It took me two hours just to make this small add-on piece. Yikes!

My favorite and most difficult building, so far. |

One of the citizens walking down one of the narrow streets of the city. The aqueduct arches are shown on the right hand side. |

I like this picture of the citizen walking down the narrow street. I should have done some editing with the light in the photo. |

The two buildings on the left and middle were finished yesterday. The third building in the distance on the right is actually a facade of a building. I added a rectangular structure behind the facade to give it 3D depth. |
Here are some pictures of the various buildings in their partially constructed and yet-to-be-finished mode.
Nice!
ReplyDeleteTaking shape very nicely Jim, it is going to be a spectacular sight when all done. Superb modelling all round.
ReplyDeleteThe town just looks fabulous, a really good job. Very like Pompeii brought to life.
