Defenders of Sicily

North Africa gave this list some teeth, and I gave them some attention over Christmas. A very enjoyable list to play.
The not so mighty R35's

Mediterranean hilltop village cont

Just before flocking, the red earth look.

I like how the roads came up

The green hills of Italy

The cliffs

Town square


All done and clear coated ready for the table









In the tubs ready to go



Just to show the area nine buildings
2xMed bases per level!

Each level lifts away for full access

I'm loving this board

Mediterranean hilltop village

Started the hilltop village to go with this table, better late than never I guess. Made it sectional so that I can use 2 or 3 sections to make the village. Had some plaster walls that I decided to use, it did restrict me to straight walls which hadit's limits. All in all I think it will come up a treat. Should have about 12 buildings all up and there are 4 roads entry points as well as heaps of infantry entry points thru blown walls stair cases and you name it a very busy village. It will be surrounded with some fields and orchards. I'll post a thread when it's done covering the constuction and all aspects of the build. This is just a teaser.








Just to show the sections better

now just the ends

Just a few quick ones to better show roads and cliffs. So here is ther 3 sections together

All the plaster peices have been washed and soon to be painted. But this shows the tight lanes leading thru the village.

and from the other end

This is my favourate area, the cliffs below the church. with some stairs for infantry access.

Rocky outcrops

two end sections together, for a smaller village.

Once again everything I make now is made to fit in these stackable tubs for storage and transport.

Mediterranean Mountains

I just wanted to show how the sections can go together along all 3 sides.
To create a valley between the high ground




Or dominate high ground in the centre



The two options above will run the lenght of the 4ft table edge. I also am going to make two futher sections that will match the smaller edges. They can be used together as a smaller ridge, or 1 could added to the dominate high ground option to run the 6ft table edge. Or both could be added to the option below and make a huge ridge. Hope that makes sense, should means loads of different configerations could be created so that the table is always different.

Or the start of a big ridge line

The 2nd half, with my sicily defenders.

Just waiting on the glue to dry from the static grass then a coat or 2 of matt clear and it's pretty much done I was going to keep at it with some more bushes ect but less is more as it already is getting a bit busy. I dug up some minis for a little fashion shoot as I always seem to use those same 3 german halftracks every timt I take a pic of terrain.
















So there you have it tester complete Now we all know how to make cliffs, thanks
