All along the Watchtower

On our second hobby day my son and I were very productive. I painted up the final layer of greenskin on an Orc Warriors unit and prepared some Napoleonic troops.
My youngest (he is fifteen) finished his scratchbuild Orcish Watchtower. In my opinion this tower has become a beautiful terrain piece and I must admit that I'm a really proud to show some pictures of the structure here.
The base is from a railway hobby H0 gauge bungalow model that I quite often bombarded with marbels and other stuff while playing with toysoldiers in my youth. The smashed bungalow is long gone but the base survived and now fullfills a new purpose. How nostalgic, but Orcs donotta grinn!

  3. Great tower indeed, looks suitably ramshackle and Orky. I intend to make a Snotling pumpwagon from scratch like this, great stuff right?
