Scenery for Wargaming and
Role Playing

How Do I make a Wild West Town?
This was an ambitious project, as I
wanted to be able to open up the story buildings to place figures at need. I
also felt that it was worth using transparent plastic in the windows, an ideal
that required a lot of time. When setting out on such a project I first look at
such references as I have for the type of building required. Then I look at the
buildings I have most close to the type to absorb any lessons learnt from the
past. Mainly what can be omitted for speed of production! In this case I wanted
wooden two story buildings roughly three inches by four. Starting with a large
sheet of picture backing card I decided on
Materials:
stout, fine and cereal packet cardboard, glue, transparent plastic (from various
packagings)
Tools:
Craft knives, pencils, rulers, paints, brushes, glue.
