Bridge & Troops

12/17/2008


We had a couple days of good strong rain and it knocked down all the dust in the back yard, so I took some Caesar Winter Germans 1/72nd scale and the Hudson & Allen three arch bridge 25mm size and took some photos. The roadway surface is kitty litter. The nice thing about that is that over time it will just break up and go away, so there is no clean up!

In our small plane flying overhead, a Storch no doubt, we see Germans have secured both sides of the bridge and are retreating over it. They are protecting two field wagons as they make good their escape.


The bridge comes unpainted just as you see it in the photo. It is made out of a very light weight resin foam material. Scenic Effects used to use a similar material for their terrain. It is a great terrain material, good and hard and sturdy but lightweight. It won't crumple up or slide around like vacuform plastic will do sometimes. It is like that aerosol insulation foam.



Caesar Winter Germans WWII are another of the great Caesar sets. They have a nice mixture of small arms, rifles, SMGs and on LMG being fired from the shoulder, very nice.


One of the men secures the area under the bridge to keep it free from those Ivan trolls who may try and create trouble.
