28mm sandbag bunker (High quality resin cast sandbag bunker to use with miniatures from 28mm up to 36+mm)

Hi guys!

 

We are already producing a range of high quality resin cast wargame terrain, designed specifically for our 1-48TACTIC range of 1:48 WWII miniatures and fully compatible with 28mm figures. Currently this range already include several basic modular fortifications and entrenchments, including a small sandbag bunker, the 28003CB sentry post.

We now want to add a new massive sandbag bunker to the range!

 

 

Plenty more pictures and full details on the indieagogo campaign page!

Large models like this are expensive to put into production and since Baueda Wargames is still pretty much a one man band (that would be me) with very limited financial resources I've decided to ask for your help to make it happen!

So I need your hard earned cash to finance the costs of putting more awesome new models in production, but what's in it for you? You get the option to acquire the models with a substantial discount even before they are added to our catalog and begin to ship to retailers. I'm doing this to pay for the growth of the company, so basically you are getting the products at cost price, but hurry! The campaign will only last until Fri 14^th of June, so grab your chance to be part of it NOW!

If for any reason you don't want or can't contribute to the campaign, but you would still like to see this product added to our catalog so that it will soon be available also from your local retailer then please help to get the word out, let your friends know, share this on facebook and make some noise about this campaign in your local gaming community! You'll have our everlasting gratitude and will help us bringing to life yet more new fantastic models!

Thank you and have fun!

This is a new 6x4 in "Arid" finish, the tank is the same 1/100th scale (15mm) Zvezda plastic model just primed grey you can see also in the pictures of the Desert and Temperate finish here

The pictures have been taken with the artificial light, the customer kindly allowed me to hold on the finish mat for a week to see if I can get better pictures but the weather this time of the year is just too cloudy and images always comes up very bluish hue...

(The mat is draped over some boxes in these pictures...)

6x4 in "Arid" finish

of course I can color correct them in post processing as I did with the image above, taken with artificial light, but still the resulting image looses much of the subtle color variations in the actual backdrop color...

Natural and artificial light mixed

6x4 in "Arid" finish

 The last image was taken with natural light only then the image has been processed to add some contrast enhancement. The real color is somehow halfway between all these, but a bit lighter...

6x4 (180x120 cm) backdrops!

Just finished a couple of large terrain mats, both commission orders.

This is a 6x4 in "Desert" finish, the tank is a 1/100th scale (15mm) Zvezda plastic model (originally I did mistakenly wrote Tamiya) just primed...

the idea was to have an example of a neutral grey region as well as a scale reference, but it turned out the primer I used is a distinct blue hue... bugger!

Taken with the same light but the image has been processed adding a strong contrast enhancement to show off details. The actual color variation is more subtle and overall the terrain color is much lighter than this!

This is a shot with a strong light placed very low and some extra contrast added in post processing to pick up the detail of the texture, the colors are burned out as a result...

 again actual colors with contrast enhancement

This is a 6x4 in "Temperate" finish, the tank is the same as above, the figure is a 1:100 (15mm) Norman knight from our own range: http://www.baueda.com/hostis_nrm.html

The new sandbag emplacements are ready!

Figure shown for scale reference only is from our own 1-48COMBAT line, also coming soon!

 

 This and the following one shows both the two new products coming out shortly, 28003CB guard post and 28002CB sandbag gun emplacement, these can be combined in many ways, as shown also in the images below...

 this is 28003CB guard post with the two entrenchment corner sections that comes with it...

This is a detail of one of the entrenchement sections:

 In a previous post I showed you those same entrenchments with a similar but different product: 28009CB sandbag bunker, here you can see it next to 28003CB guard post

  as you can see the bunker is much larger and also the sandbag sides are thicker and piled up higher.

The sentry post hold comfortably up to two 25mm round bases, the bunker has been designed to hold four with some space to spare, so can be used as a command or fire direction bunker but also as an heavy weapon emplacement. There is room for some pretty decent ordnance and its crew in there, but of course it won't work for a big artillery piece... fear not, for that there is  this is 28002CB sandbag gun emplacement:

the massive sandbag defence itself has been ready for a while and I've posted a preview here a while ago, but we decided to hold on the release and add some little extra to it: a fuse setting station and a pile of discarded boxes and empty shells... I hope you'll agree it was worth waiting for it!

Both will start shipping this week!

28002CB sandbag gun emplacement

The new artillery sandbag emplacement  is ready!

Figure shown for scale reference only is from our own 1-48COMBAT line but not yet available.

The picture is of the first test cast of 28002CB sandbag gun emplacement, everything seems ok so it is in production as of now and will be available shortly!

1:48 sandbag bunker!

More terrain for 1-48COMBAT coming soon!

This sandbag bunker is part of the new command post pack, the roof is a separate piece and can be positioned at different heights depending where you set the beams in relation to the posts.
The images are of the first test cast, production should start shortly... the figure is there for size reference only, it's a 36mm figure from the new coming 1-48COMBAT faction for the game, that is a bit further down the line though... :) as you can see is perfectly usable with 28mm figures (which are 30-32mm high) as well.

 Seen from the back with the two corner sections of entrenchment included in the command pack.

 The corner sections will also be available separately, as well as another couple of packs which are still in development (straight sections and inner corners) and are obviously designed to match those included with 48012CS Mark Shuster and 48011 Igor Povlyak, the German and Russian grenadiers.
Together all these components form a complete modular system that will let you create a great looking fortified emplacement in a few minutes, and you can change it every time you play, plus it can be used on every front of WWII, from North Africa to the Pacific, but is also perfect for Vietnam, Korea, and even dark future settings...
