Medieval tents @ 20mm

Post by ochoin »

We're gearing up for our annual Show game later this year.

It will be a medieval game (Lion Rampant) so 'knights in shining armour' are being eagerly painted.
Our centre piece will be a castle but each of the 5 retinues of competing warriors needs to have a base camp.

These need to be a tent or two, perhaps a pack animal, various detritus. Ideally, some of these tents would be the fancy, round ones beloved of the noble born. Where do I get some at our scale?

If "The System" is the answer, who asked such a bloody stupid question?

You, sir, are a genius.

I'd never thought of paper models so I've found a pile of free medieval tents online.
And, Of course, I can adjust the size before printing.

cheers, donald

I'm not a genius, I'm just an over-aged boffin.

Well done, Tim. I forgot about them.

They look good, Donald. I like the wagons, too. Who does them?
