Next project for the Far East was to build a bridge, I scratch built it used MDF. I cut out the desired pieces of MDF with the help of my brothers table saw and a Mitre box which speed up the process of cutting the MDF.
 |
 |
| Normally the top of the bridge would have more reinforcement poles however I reduced the number to 3. This allows for easier access for placement and movement of figures/vehicles within the bridge structure. |
 |
| The road area is made from a sheet of cardboard glued in place with PVA glue. I also scribed lines on the cardboard with a blunt instrument and added a bit of fine grit onto the road surface and edges. |
 |
| Undercoated with black Primer. |
 |
| Applying a base coat of Vallejo Model colour Intermediate Green |
 |
| I used this as the base colour for the bridge |
 |
| I added VMC Iraqi sand to the base to highlight, also added chipping with Black paint, rust with VGC Carne Marron Tan and a few stains with Agrax Earthshade. I used VMC Biege Brown as a base for the road and highlighted by adding VMC Iraqi sand to the base. |
 |
| PVA was added to a few spots on the inner corners of the bridge. |
 |
| Added Woodland Scenic Blended Turf. |
 |
| View I some of the detail with some bird poop to the left of the bridge. |
 |
| I based the bridge colour on this one in Malaysia |
 |
| Bridge on the gaming table. |
 |
| Japanese troops and vehicles crossing the bridge in the Far East. Onto the next Far East project. |
