I don't know about 10mm suppliers but I make mine for 15mm and they are pretty easy. I build them out of foam core and then round them and cover any gaps/imperfections with spackling paste. Then I paint them with a thinned white glue and sprinkle fine sand all over (the finer the better) then spray them gray followed by several drybrushes of lightened gray and finally sparingly with white.

Nice - Have a look here: http://kiwidave.pbworks.com/US-River-Assault

The two pillboxes by the river are Pendraken,and if you eyesight is very good, there is a bunker in the woods near the back of the German side of the table.

If you like I can take a couple of pics and email them.

I've got a third variant (unpainted), which is almost a mirror image of the bunker (curtain wall on the other side).

I may get some others one day....

Hi,

I have made both hard and "soft" defences for 15mm and its not too tricky:

Heres my log bunker:

and other shots of my terrain tiles can be seen a htp://www.ww2games.blog.co.uk

Cheers, Craig
