Warbases Engineers Cart


If you came here because you followed a link from TMP, you have been duped. Tango01 does not exist, he is a sock puppet account of TMP Editor and the post you followed was just a pathetic attempt to drive traffic to the cesspit that is TMP by using SEO. Don't support TMP it steals content.

I've had this cart for about a year now since Victoria bought it for me, but had ran out of draft horses. My trip to the UK and visit to Partizan back in August remedied that.


Both the shire horse and engineers cart are from Warbases and were all painted in my usual style of a base-coat, AP strong tone wash, glazed highlights and then brown lined with W&N peat brown.


The green on the cart is some Vallejo Model Colour that the label fell off years ago, no idea what colour it is but good for things like this when it really does not matter what colour you use.


 It's mainly to be used as an engineers cart for my Sharp Practice games, but is pretty generic so may see action in many other battles too. I've now amassed quite a collection of baggage train, mainly from these great Warbases models.

  1. Great looking cart and horse, Scrivs. Very nice piece for the battlefield - could even be some kind of supply objective.

  2. Looks great Paul. W&N Peat brown is a saviour. I've been using it for years.

  6. Great job Paul!

    I agree about keeping them neutral so both sides can use them.
