Across the border down Mexico way...




I finished off the other two re-painted resin hills today, which I think is more then enough for the space that I have on my desert terrain board, especially as they are only needed for skirmish scenarios. I also thought I'd see how well the board matched up with my 20mm Mexican Revolution terrain, in particular with the cactus bases I made last year and the hacienda for the Patton's First Fight scenario. I was pleased to find that they matched really well, so I have solved my immediate terrain requirements for  Fistful of Lead: Viva la Revolucion, at least as far as this scenario is concerned. They also make a nice defile or wadi for the Sandbox Skirmish project, with the British patrols having to fight their way through potential rebel ambushes from all sides!

    Where are the cactus from? Are they the Pegasus ones?

    They're resin ones from Shellhole Scenics glued down to mdf bases, which I then textured before painting.
