Very nice John T

Excellent conversion. You make it look easy, but then you have the skills, experience and eye for detail. I would end up with a ruin. :-) Are the figures 25mm?

Very nice indeed. Good work. Is the fort available any more though? martin

Lovely work!

A lovely model, but isn't it a bit strange to have a monastery without a church?

I recognise Friar Tuck from the Airfix Robin Hood set .

Hi, the fort has been OOP for a while. Maybe Airfix will start to re-release all their cool forts again!
Ragbones	19 Jan 2016 1:33 p.m. PST
What a great idea; and well done, too.
martin goddard	19 Jan 2016 1:57 p.m. PST
That fort is great for 15mm too. Nice to have one for sudan etc(or indeed a monastery) martin

Thanks :-D @ Condotta. They are 1/72nd, a mix of Airfix (the "wizard"), Imex and valdemar (the Monks) and Valdemar (the pilgrims) @ MajorB. Not all Monasterys had a church..some just had a chapel, so it could be a room inside the main building

I can hear the Flaggellants flogging themselves from here.

I was looking for the Sean Connery monk investigating a murder. The building sorta looks and feels like the one in the movie.

the fort has been OOP for a while. Maybe Airfix will start to re-release all their cool forts again! Fortunately I'm pretty sure that I have, at the very least, two unmade at the back of the cupboard…. …hoarders, eh ?
