Hi Guys,
One of the finest buildings my late brother Gordon constructed was this medieval European chateau / country house.
I had originally given Gordon a very rough sketch of a Scottish-style manor house of the kind that used to be built in the borderlands between Scotland and England and also in the Scottish Highlands.
Originally this was built back in 2015 when we launched our ‘Pike & Musket’ series depicting the English Civil War and the Thirty Years War in Continental Europe.
Over the following years this handsome structure has played ‘host’ to Oliver Cromwell’s Roundheads’… ‘British Redcoats’… and even ‘WW2 German’ doctors, nurses and ambulances.
Here however, it has been taken over by the Emperor himself and a few of his senior commanders as they plan their next battlefield moves.
In the foreground you can see a group of mounted ‘Grenadiers a Cheval’ just returning from ‘Picket Duty’ in the grounds of the Chateau.
Hope you like this one.
Best wishes,
Andy
