They are screwed together and glued then painted with textured paint and overpainted and dry brushed with Dulux.

They look exactly like the type of thing I am planning for my own set up.<br /><br />The game looked a lot of fun as well!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-64533304556492622172018-12-14T19:02:50.513+00:002018-12-14T19:02:50.513+00:00I find it helpful to achieve specific goals, such ...I find it helpful to achieve specific goals, such as rule testing, but mostly I wargame to interact with other people.Trebianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221916804339000102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-43725507940368560032018-12-14T18:58:48.027+00:002018-12-14T18:58:48.027+00:00Sometimes a solo game turns out to be more rewardi...Sometimes a solo game turns out to be more rewarding than a big old multiplayer and no one can argue with the umpire, which is great.
