Building Wagons - 2 - Austrian Supply Wagons 2

 Here's some work-in-progress pictures of my three Austrian wagons, now they are painted & assembled.

Painting photos.  I glued them on a stick so I could paint them without touching them...




Here are the wagons and the wheels ready for assembly...



Here are the wagons assembled, they now need some horses, a pole at the front to attach the horses to, horse handler and basing.  Stay tuned...





Note that the spare wheel is angled down at 45 degrees.  The stowage is plasti-card offcuts to make boxes, with strip as little handles.  The ammo wagons were painted yellow, the mobile forge was either painted brown or was left natural wood (maybe clear varnished?).  

Here's a couple of stowage pictures.  A further option would be to drape a tarpaulin over the stowage (as you would not want your stuff getting wet!)...

  2. Dear Neil. Glad to provide enjoyment! I try to give enough detail so that viewers know the scale, ruleset & figure manufacturer - which is one of the FAQ on Facebook posts if missing... I also hope that if you want to try any of the scratchbuilds, you have the information needed to give it a go! Cheers Colin
