About the Project

Set in the 18th century Hudson Valley US, this project is part historical and horror. The terrain will be farmland, stone walls and buildings inspired by Dutch architecture of the time. The miniatures will be mostly Galloping Major and Wargames Foundry. I will be collecting and painting small minis for skirmish games with the intent to build up to larger games like Sharpe Practice taking place during the French & Indian War.

I spread wood filer in vertical rows about 30mm apart from each other, onto Warbases 2mm MDF terrain bases. I then put the jig (Right side in photo) at the top and pull carefully towards removing exes wood filer and smoothing out the furrow. Between furrows I brushed Mod Podge glue and sprinkled sand onto it.

After 24 hours I placed a ruler horizontal to the vertical furrows and doted with a Sharpie were corn stocks would go. I then drilled every dot and glued in O gauge corn from JTT.

Using Wood Filler again, I spread a thin layer to most of the 2mm base. Then using a cake decorator (triangle on left of photo), I pulled thin furrows into the wood filler. Bamboo skewers make up the four corner posts and Renedra plastic wattle fencing wrap around.

Pumpkin Patch

O gauge plastic pumpkins from JTT were repainted and added to the patch.
