Hangman’s Gallows from 4Ground

Hangman's Gallows from 4Ground
Another piece finished for my Old West games – a Hangman's Gallows from 4Ground. What Western town could be without one?
I painted this one as I wasn’t too fond of the prepainted wood-look. A relatively easy job.
The ropes are provided in the set and I stretched them and soaked with super-glue to get them stiff as they have a tendency to bend if untreated and that looks like crap.
Finally a big welcome follower Leo Donkersley.

    A great piece, and I'm sure it will be a feature of some interesting scenarios.

      It screams for a scenario with oulaws vs lawmen.

      I tried some different methods and superglue worked best. You need to paint the rope afterwards, as they turned all dark where glued.
      They are super-stiff, though.

    Nice work. It'll make a great focus for all kinds of scenarios.

    Well done! The gallows is a centrepiece for my Old West Town! It’s a really nice kit.

      I've drooled over that great terrain board already. Fantastic!
      I'm in the process of trying to figure out how to build my own terrain. I need more that a grass-mat.
