Hello all,


A couple or more years ago, someone posted a scratch built vauban-esque city that they had scratchbuilt in about 2mm scale and it was based on a hex base, if I remember correctly.

I am unable to find that post, but does anyone know to which I refer or have a quick link to the gentleman's blog?

If you find it, PLEASE post it back up here, or in a new topic. As a 1/1200 naval guy, this sounds very interesting.

Nice, but not on a hex base, so probably not the one he's looking for.

I remember seeing it posted here about 3-5 years ago. It was very well done, and it was painted.

17th or 18th century city, with a Vauban style fortification surrounding it.

Thank you, but that is not it. That fort is way too large. The one I am thinking of was quite small, and I think it was on a 4" or 5" hex.

It had a lot of little buildings within it.

This is not exactly what I was thinking of, but very close to it. The city I remember had a bit more orange in it and I believe it was smaller.
