Hi folks,

I've been thinking about the setting for the gun. I have the Draisine underway and I had thought of combining it with something.

I noticed on the Ford Ambulance base currently under development by GBS that it contains a section of narrow gauge track so I'm thinking there might be an opportunity to combine all 3 projects into one setting, the Howitzer, Draisine and Ambulance. The ambulance I had already earmarked to use with the Draisine so I shall have to wait and see if there is a combination to be made there.

Good possibilities to think on anyway and I might just have enough space on the base.



Cheers

Hi folks,

This is the base with a bit of basic paint added. There is a small smooth area behind the wall so I added some flooring. I intend to add some more rubble as I want more of a damaged building than an abandoned and over grown one.







Cheers
