Here is the 2nd installment of our build of Marengo for Fall In. Made some good headway, but lots left to do.
Gluing hills down, after they were sanded smooth.
Carving out small streams with a Dremel and a cutting bit.
Spackling the edges of the hills to make them gentle slopes.
Laying down the roads. Using paint and fine ballast.
Putting down the fields with paint and scenic flock. More pics and write up on my blog: link Cheers, Xin |

did you use a specific map to model your terrain on? |

That stream must be where the crayfish for Poulet Marengo came from! Possibly! See the next Wargames Bloggers Quarterly for the full story! link Great terrain build! |

Thanks for the comments. DofB, we used about 4 or 5 maps. To get the best idea of what was there and what we could model. Xin |
