German HMG

Finished painting these two chaps along with their gun a while ago but only sorted out the basing the other day!

WW1 German HMG team from Renegade Miniatures.

Trostle Farm, Gettysburg.

This is what I have been up to over the last couple of months.

Trostle farmhouse.

Made from cardboard balsa wood and plastic rod for the upper story rails for the Gettysburg refight game in July.

 There was also a barn and a wagon shed on the property but I think I will leave the farm as just the homestead.

 Picket fence made out of strips of balsa wood.

 

 By sitting the house in the corner of the field there is enough room for troops in the front and down one side.

  

  

The yard has been made big enough to hold a unit 4 stands wide  and the building can be removed altogether if more troops are required to be in the field.

I have also posted a few more photos on our Harper's Weekly blog showing the house in action and a bit of info on it's place in the great battle.

Happy New Year everbody

Lets hope it's a good one!
