Ikwen Pics and Buildings built

So I finished basing the Ikwen a while back but never got round to taking pics, so that's now been done because I have also finished some buildings. Ikwen up first, this is just a small sample as they are the unlimited force for the games but I have about 2 platoons worth in total I think.

I purchased a set of 15mm pre painted buildings from 4Ground and despite them being an utter pita to put together.  (I think the instructions would be far better served starting with the smaller buildings and working their way up to the biggest fiddliest building as the last one.

They went together okay in the end, but I did make a couple of mistakes along the way, some of the bits are really small and the labeling on the cutout sheets isn't the easiest to read and I did end up having to pry some pieces apart before the glue dried because I'd misread the label or what it applied to. The example being those little vents/air con units that you can see are 7 pieces and should have been 8, but I didn't successfully get the last piece out of the sheets for any of them.


Regardless these are all for use with Tomorrow's war/ambush alley/Force on Force Asymmetric warfare, played on a 2'x2' board in 15mm. Brigades polish force vs the indigenous Ikwen. I've still got bits to make up scenery wise, but I have forest bits, buildings, and I want to finish off more barricades, fencing, junk piles etc.


So 15mm done for a bit. back to bigger things for a bit.
