I finished the mortar pit this weekend, and decided rather than a turf roof to try my hand at modelling a Zeltbahn/tarp and painting German Eichenlaubmuster (Spring Oakleaf) Camo. Click Pics to enlarge:

The tarp was made from milliput and placed across the wooden support beams, and I added a few more details in balsa and card before painting. The Eichenlaubmuster is GW Graveyard Earth/Vallejo Flat Earth 50/50 base, with GW Goblin Green spots and GW Catachan Green/Chaos Black 50/50 edges/spots, finished with a 1:5 Brown ink wash. The first time I ve done Eichenlaubmuster, and I am fairly pleased although it did tale a couple of runs at it.
