This is not realy a tutorial just some pictures showing the different stages during my work with the 2 sledges.
The horses are from the Perry WotR WR 29 Wagon horse team, I used the two back horses and the rider, just gave him some winter clothes. For the other sledge I used the coachman from the Perry RN 34 Single horse peasant/Cossack waggon, just added a bit of grean stuff to his cap.
The sledge was build of 1.5mm plasticcard about 45mm x 25mm, the sides are about 7,5mm high. I used som sprues to build the skids.
At the bottom of this post you can find some short films about driving a Swedish Fora/Sledge.
That is so very clever Dal, I love it!
ReplyDeleteOnce GW sees you turned their sprues into skis, you might send you a bill. ;-)
That is very cool!
