Scratchbuilt five Japanese bunkers for the Far East/Pacific. Two small LMG bunkers; a larger MMG bunker and one for an AT gun, and, last but not least, a large bunker for two weapon teams. The core shape was cut from XPS foam and then mounted on MDF. The firing apertures were made from bamboo BBQ skewers. The exterior was textured with filler followed by PVA and sand. Flock and other flora from a mix of different manufacturers.

Nice, does the roof come off, or are the MGs set in place? |

Well done, especially the landscaping. |

Nice, does the roof come off, or are the MGs set in place? No, not much point as they are not deep enough to hold them. I found a few old Waterloo Japanese and cut them down to put inside (permanently). In a game I'll create an off table holding box for the occupants. |
