I've finished the windmill ( apart from applying flock to the base).
Overall I'm quite happy with it. The sails are a bit on the small side, but any longer and I think they would have been a hindrance to transport and storage.
I'll set some pictures up on a proper tabletop one day, but here it is on the unholy mess of my workbench.
A Bavarian pikeman lays claim to the mill on behalf of the Emperor.
I added a worn millstone from Debris of War .
The ladder and tiller came out fairly well.
I was pleased with the brickwork, painting a light colour to represent the mortar and then dry brushing brick red
I've just watched a very good video on
YouTube about the siege of Leiden in 1573. The defenders moved windmills
from outside the walls and reassembled
them within to provide flour.
I'm just chopping up some coffee stirrers to make some artillery bases , so hopefully I'll be posting those soon.
