They will resemble more like the internal height of around 6 - 8mm (bearing in mind Baccus minis average 8mm). <br /><br />I agree about targets. I tend to treat them more as a motivator and to keep me at least partially forcused.Jon Bleasdalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14269994831030361551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212274495968887704.post-51316667464658381712023-02-17T12:27:15.884+00:002023-02-17T12:27:15.884+00:00Many thanks Steve.

We certainly are in hillfort territory here in the west which is why I felt I could not really skip building one!<br /><br />I am sure I have said it before, but I probably have too many projects on the go with the result that some are fairly static for a period of time. On the plus side I can switch when the mood takes me.

If the walk way is 15mm wide the palisade looks a bit tall for 6mm figures or is the extra height an allowance for the figure bases?<br />Don't worry about meeting targets, their purpose is only for motivation not to exclude diverting excursions.

There are the remains of quite a few hill forts around here (Bristol), ranging from rather small to quite large and some with their ramparts still relatively intact. I hope to visit some more this year all being well.<br /><br />Gettysburg and WWII Western Desert certainly tick all the boxes for me and look forward to seeing what you come up with. You have a good few projects on the go, like myself, but most of mine are paused... :(.Steve J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12143308117853983963noreply@blogger.com
