Which rules system, I mean.
What game is this for?
I like that idea. I might even need to get an HBC flag for kicks.
I'm not great at taking these pictures, but here's the final product. I don't know if Brigade Models changed their mold, but mine was textured, though not in a way that resembles brick or stone. ...
Any painting tips?
I see.
Are you sure that's not just a slope down to the water you can see on the right? In the 18th century, the fort was much closer to the water.

Unfortunately, I can't claim any responsibility for the islands themselves, they were made by an eBay vendor. I'm just trying to put together some things to put on them!
While many of you seem to be producing replicas of Mediterranean and Caribbean fortifications, I'm going to be taking by cues from Prince of Wales Fort in Manitoba, Canada and other North American...
All washed and scrubbed, waiting to prime. I'll be using a grey Vallejo liquid primer though, mostly because I already purchased it.
