Saving Alice's Xmas presents !
Getting the layout
Whilst awaiting the final tiles, I decided to do an OTT type concept layout to see how it looks and what else I need.
I have brought a couple of Micro Art Studios Normandy buildings, Pre painted to add to my central 3d printed building . They are some of the nicest and easiest to build mdf buildings that I have built even for a clutz like me.
(In fact I have noe brought the farmhouse and Brick built shed to add to collection, having found that the New Element games in Brum stocks them)
For trees , now I didn’t want to re paint my current collection or pay a fortune for more, searched of Amazon again and found that at this time of year, there are lots of minature xmas trees for sale, so brought a bundle of mixed sizes at £14 , and was suprised how many I got. OK a lot are small ones, but thought put them together for a newly sown nursery bit of wood.
Finally I have put the ruins from the base Battle of Bulge starter up one corner, to provide more cover and to break up lines of sight.
I have got some more ordered, slightly bigger which should be enough, they will need reading but that should be easy enough.
Anyway this is the base table layout so far . The central 3d print building needs the lower part painting but the roof is finished and a farmhouse to be added to the Farm area and the Brick shed will placed at back of Garage but think I now have base table layout. The Track is the FLAMES OF WAR one 15mm in theory but it works. I do have a 28mm highway but it is a bit modern , wide, and has a white line on it which might be a bit too modern plus no curves.
As said with the extra buildings and trees should be nearly there, debating as small amount of hedgerows along road but will see.
