FRENCH CIVILIANS 28mm and DRINK CABINET

Took advantage of a  RDO (rostered day off from work ) today to work on more items for CANCON.

The first,  German Shabby Trick Two; Civilians, which will come in play with the "glider landings' scenario. 

For the British, the Drink Cabinet which will be available in "crossing the canal" scenario after a Stuka attack, one of the  bombs lands short of its  target building and uncovers a stash of "Vino". 

These items are specific for early war action from the  Chain of Command Blitzkrieg 1940  handbook.


Painted figures just prior to basing.

The metal figures are from Berlin or Bust miniatures.




Figures super glued on 60 mm plastic base and Milliput added and set aside to dry.

painted the bases.
 
Added the flock.




Completed civilians

My take on the wine cabinet, instead of using a actual cabinet I would have thought the French would have hid their precious wines  by burying them in the garden.
 
First step  make the wooden crates and build up a mount of earth around the crates with plastic sprue  on a plastic base.

Using Milliput build up the earth around the crates.

Make the lids of the crates and roll out wine bottle again using the Milliput .
Once the Milliput is set, super glue all the items and prime with Black Undercoat. Paint  and apply a gloss vanish over the bottles to give them a shine. 



Cheers John
