More buildings for Montcornet! Patrick Miniatures was incredibly generous and designed and printed these as a gift towards the table. Based on actual houses in the town, they were fantastic to work on.

On Friday we announced 6 new Old West kits that are being added to our Table Ready Terrain range of colour printed buildings on Wednesday. We are also releasing these 7 kits to our existing Cactus Creek range which you can find here; warbases.co.uk/product-cate...

Essentially, it's a foamcore base, built up a little with scrap polystyrene and filler, then sand and pva. Hot glue clumps of rubberised horsehair. Spray brown, brush on pva, add coarse flock. Seal with diluted pva

I'll probably bring the Montcornet table to Mid-Lard (is that what you're calling it?)

I had a brilliant day on Friday. Visited the Wargames Illustrated office, played some WaT from @toofatlardies.bsky.social and showed a sample of my next table

It might be my project for the 2027 shows. This year it'll be the Battle of Montcornet 1940, a nice little northern French town.

Lots of armour for my Montcornet 1940 table finished up. Some will be used for CoC at HoL, but most for Salute and WaT
