Here is the latest of my ACW 8" Columbiad project in 28mm. I was in a model railway shop the other day and saw a tunnel entrance that I immediately thought when laying down flat would be perfect for a fortress gun emplacement for the 8" Columbiad. With a sheet of model paving stuck down as its base and a crew painted I think it looks just the part. The crew are a mixture of TA Miniatures (the makers of the gun) and Sash and Saber. The two esteemed civilian visitors are Redoubt Enterprises. I still need to add more equipment around the emplacement, but what you see here is basically the finished piece.
