For my "Running from Bull Run" game at Steel Lard, I need to capture the feel of the Warrenton Pike being scattered with stores abandoned by the collapsing Union logistics system as well as personal equipment discarded by fleeing Yankees.
I have some suitable castings on order from 1st Corps but whilst I'm waiting for them to arrive, I thought I'd have a go at creating some of my own.
 |
| This pile of crates was 3D printed from an STL downloaded from Thingiverse |
 |
| Richard Phillips gave me these barrels. I've scattered around some bits from various plastic sets |
 |
| Likewise: 3D printed ammo box, hatchet from Warlord Colonial Militia, shako and drum from Perry ACW infantry, carbine from Warlord WSS cavalry. |
The bases are off-cuts of cheap floor tile from Poundland. I painted them with Modpodge and then poured on sand. Once the first layer was dry I sealed the whole with a second coat of Modpodge before painting and dry-brushing.
More to follow when the 1st Corps order arrives!
