That looks great. A grand total of 6 should be enough, including the original one, so I guess that's 4 more, please. I should have the tree bases completed by the end of the week, then I'm away for a week. After that, I will start the second Flak 36 emplacement, though I think I may try to think of an alternative to sandbags! I think I will add some grass to the present one, so that means sand for a DAK one. I already have some ideas.

No problem, I'll get them all done over the next couple of days. If you want them before the next meet just let me know, and we can arrange a day for you to collect them if you would like to pop over?

Cheers

That would be great. It would give me a chance to get them painted up. I will pm you when I get back at the beginning of June.

Your tree base is pretty much finished. Just needs a few tufts of grass and it's done. One advantage of not having to work for a living :D

Whilst waiting for my grass applicator, and with my back aching from gardening, I thought I would have a go at making some barbed wire. Any good?

There we go two bridge ramps, now given the stone wall effect, I'll pick up the main part of the bridge at the next meet and see what I can do with that. I'll also weather the road surface a bit, it looks a bit too pristine at the moment.

Six Flak88 ammo crates, all done, they turned out quite nicely. If I had thought about it before designing them I could have done opening lids, and made them hollow, they would have printed in half the time, and used less filament. :{ At least this way they are unbreakable.
