1:1200 Island Frenzy

Back in September I was trying to decide what to work on next. I was just sitting in my chair in the shop and my wandering eyes stopped on the stack of Styrofoam in the corner. I grabbed a few pieces and glued them together.

The next day I drew some basic lines on the stack.

Then I sort of forgot about it for the next couple of months while I was building ships. In early December I got out the hot knife and roughed out a few shapes and gave them a spray coat of paint then forgot about them again while I built another ship.

Over the last couple of days I finished them. I also added an additional island with Martello tower, signal station, and gun emplacement.

Here are the individual islands:
The little island

The Big Island

I call this one Boot Island

This one is Cave Island

And finally the fortified island

 

And some more scenic shots

So I have accomplished my self required annual terrain piece, albeit a few days late for 2013. I don't know what the 2014 piece will be, but hey, I have all year to think of something! Now.....back to the shipyard!
