If like me you once owned a 1/72nd scale Airfix Jungle Outpost, you'll like this laser cut jungle hut kit which I've found on ebay. It needs to be painted and I think the roof needs some thatch material to make it less regular and a bit more jungly, for want of a better word, but otherwise I think it looks really good. I'm hoping that the kit will arrive before the half term break so that I can assemble, paint and base it up to use with the Chain of Command Burma / Malaya project. It would also double up as a terrain feature for pirate games or even Darkest Africa, so a useful building all round.
Welcome to my blog. I have upwards of 100 projects in various stages of incompletion or total abandonment, so you may well find something of interest if you rummage about a bit. I concentrate on solo air and naval wargaming but other 'skirmishy' things quite often pop up out of nowhere, only to disappear again after something else grabs my attention. I even finish the occasional project now and again!
