New Terrain

 As mentioned in my post on the Anti-Colonial Camel Corp army in early May I needed some buildings for a desert village or town.

Unusually for me I got right on it and purchased three small buildings and two larger ones from Dark Castle Terrain Dark Castle Terrain who are an Australian company. It was very reasonable, only A$22 for all the buildings plus around $12 postage so A$34. (Approx. USD20 or GBP16 in total)

The designs are licenced from JB MDF Wargames who has an eBay store and is located in the UK.

They all went together very easily and have plenty of detail.

Very unusually I also assembled and painted them within a week of receiving them. Go me!

In addition to the above, also available at Dark Castle Terrain was a small farm house for the princely sum of $5. I couldn't resist and got it as well.

Assembled and based with the glue still drying

A quick day and evenings work and all done in record time.

    1. Thanks Peter. They should look good on the battlefield either as terrain or background.
