Hougoumont, Part 1
Dated: January 27, 2007.
Hi:
I'm starting a very ambitious project for a big diorama, the battle of Waterloo. I will send you some picture concerning the Hougoumont Castle and Farm completely self-made from cardboard.
The available buildings for Hougoumont are made in resin or other material and they are very expensive, so I can decide to made by self. I'm starting the work collecting some bibliographical information and I redraw all the buildings in 1/72 scale. The interior of the buildings are in progress. My work could be a suggestion for Hat to work on the way of production of such things becouse are very helpful for collectors and wargamers.
Greetings !
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
