Flames of War bunker

Hi all so i finished my flames of war bunker yesterday, and i have taken photos of each stage of the build so here it goes.

I placed the bunker on a Styrofoam sheet and traced round it so i knew where it was going to go in the end. Also marked out the out line of the base.


After cutting out the base shape i sloped the edges. Then i covered the base with polyfiller to add texture and also to use as glue for the bunker.


After the filler dried i painted it with a brown. in theory i should have painted the base and the bunker separately but hay ho live and learn.  


So after base coating the bunker with black i used GW fortress grey to drybrush the whole bunker.


Added home made flock to the base but leaving the front of the base a bit spare.


Leaving some of the base paint on the front showing but still covering it with pva glue when this dried gives it a wet mud type effect. 


i made some barb wire by winding some wire around a paint brush handle and glued down some clump foliage to try to make a hedge.  


I added some detail to the side of the bunker by gluing on some ww2 german posters i found on the internet. these posters were actually used at diffrent times during ww2.




So let me know what you think. I might end up adding a bit more detail to it yet but for now its done.
