Although there are still a few things to complete on the 28mm Castello Mirabello model for my Pavia game, I wanted to check that everything was fitting together. I took the opportunity to take a few photos of the current state of the building.
The inspiration for the model was from current photos of the building, older sketches of the building and the battle of Pavia tapestries. Although it is not a perfect representation it is a stylized version that fits on a 28″ x 28″ area. If I had tried to do a larger footprint, it would have taken up too much of the tabletop.
The inspiration
The following images show some of the inspiration for the project.
The model
The model includes the main building, two outbuildings, the entrance, a tower, a drawbridge and a moat. Previous posts have discussed making the buildings. The drawbridge was a modified Sarissa product.
Work to do on the 28mm Castello Mirabello
I still have some work to do on the main gate of the 28mm Castello Mirabello. You will notice that the turret tops are still not complete or painted. I also need to put some water lilies in the moat.
