Stagecoach from Sarissa

Another MDF-thingie finished, this time a stagecoach from Sarissa. Easy to assemble but this one needs some paint to be presentable. Said and quickly done.
That game of Dead Man’s Hand is getting closer.

I guess someone will appreciate the cover…

    1. Thank you, Laffe!
      It's surprising what a little paint can do (well, actually a lot of paint as it just soaked into the MDF and cardboard)

    2. I've heard - but not tried yet - that you can spray with hairspray to seal the surface.

    3. You could probably spray with any kind of spray to at least partly seal the surface.
      Well, worth a try i guess, but we don't have any hairspray...

    1. Me too! There is quite a lot to paint still. More Sarissa pieces and a couple of Perry houses. All assembled but not finished.
      And roads. I need roads.

  3. Nicely done. I did wonder how absorbent or otherwise the MDF is.

      A fair bit, but the stagecoach have many card-pieces and they just soak it up

      Best kind of model - relatively cheap, easy to assemble and paint and gives a presence on the gaming board

      I was inspired by the one I saw at the High Desert Museum
