Singling Church

I started my build of the Singling church over the weekend. I had some left over artist mounting board from a previous project that had enough room left and I mocked up the walls for the church.It took some trial and error but I have the form of the church complete. I will reinforce the building with plenty of hot glue. What I am looking to do is seal the mounting board. Years ago, I had a spray can of sealant that I had. I will look for something similar to try to protect this. I have just sliced the details for the church that I did in Tinkercad. If I can, I will take these to my printer today.

The School house is my next target. I also sliced the doorway that I made. There was not enough room on the print bed to include that with the Singling church items.I purchased the townhouse building in 15mm from Warbases. This should be a good base for the school building. I will need to add another chimney to it. I am undecided as to how to do the windows. I may 3d print them like I have for the church. The school is on a terrain change. The front of the building is at the top of a hill. The back half of the building is on the downhill side of the building. Currently, there is a parking lot behind the building. It is uncertain what would have been behind it during the war. I am assuming some kind of yard for recess. I am uncertain how to model this for the tabletop. The hill plays a significant role in the battle. As in places, the Americans used the hill for a hull down position and the infantry took cover behind it as well. My thought would be to build a separate understructure for the hill to cover with a terrain cloth. Then the building can rest on it and an extension under the building. Still thinking it through.

Other Items...
When I ordered the townhouse, i have also ordered some raven dice for Midgard. I liked the look of the Ragnar raven dice and figured I would get some at somepoint. So in the cart they went.

Things have slowed with my Roman project. I just haven't had time to paint miniatures. Hopefully I can get to it this week. I would love to have at least one fully painted project.
