Carribean: Port Royal - Jumeida - Under Construction

More work in progress on coastal/port modules for my little ships - this time the main port, Port Royal, on the british island of Jumeida. I've been struggling for some time to figure out how to make a fort for it, but I was given one which was close enough and matches just about the scale of the Rod Langton buildings I had .....

A closer in lower level shot giving an idea of the size of the fort and buildings compared to the ship....

Now to get down to finishing off.....

Carribean: Native Village (2) - all done

Finished off the village houses then flocked the bases - not quite tropical - but neutral enough for use in a number of ways ....

Carribean: Native Village (1) - new items & initial work

I picked up some secondhand buildings at good price to use to start a small native village; buildings are perhaps not quite right - but I want them to be re-useable possibly in other contexts.

I also decided to re-use or modify some of my dark age houses as well..

The dark age hut with the door in the side, making a base for it from card and parts of plastic trees ....

 

The hut I bought is now based, the dark age hut with the door in the side is done as well. I have also done the small dark age hut - it is stuck on a cut down 1/32 scale table with some plasticard strips added to get the correct width

the steps used are from a pack I picked up in a model shop which specialises in boats (always worth a rummage for things that may be useful in any model shop). I've based the round house - which will act as the chiefs residence - on a simple square base - needs terraining etc ...

I probably do a nother couple of huts, then finish them all off; also in progress on the painting table are a few more pirates - including some women pirates
