I seem to recall that someone makes Fort Zinderneuf from Beau Geste in 25/28 mm but I cannot remember who. I seem to recall that it was made from extruded foam and not resin. Can anyone help me out? Thanks |

Might it be my Warbases MDF version. link
Check out the Two Fat Lardies forum as Richard Clarke is a dab hand at making forts from foam. |

Hudson and Allen do a fort in foam. Still available from Vatican Enterprises. |

It's the Hudson & Allen one, which is really nice and paints up well. |

there are several places on the web with the plans for making your own. I have done several of these fort and its a easy build. |

I also recommend the Hudson & Allen desert fort, it's made of expanded foam, and now sold by Vatican Ent. in the USA.

Yep, I was thinking of Hudson and Allen. Great stuff I have a number of their buildings. Jim, that is a great looking fort as well and appreciate the link. Wakmole9 can you provide any of those links for making your own. The Fort Zinderneuf is for a future project down the road. In the short term I would love to scratch build a small Zanzibari fort for my Darkest Africa games. |

I thought Old Glory did a 25mm one, but I can only find the 10mm one:
