Title: New Wooden Bridge!
Post by: Leon on 07 January 2016, 11:12:42 PM
We're only a week into the new year and it's time for our first release of 2016!

This excellent wooden bridge comes in 5 sections (2 ramps / 2 walkways / 1 support), measuring 145mm long and and 30mm wide across the bridge itself.  The ramps can be used with a single walkway to create a shorter span as well.

PS59   Wooden Bridge (5 pieces)     £6.00    - http://www.pendraken.co.uk/PS59-p7384/ (http://www.pendraken.co.uk/PS59-p7384/)
(http://www.pendraken.co.uk/ProductImages/PS59.jpg)

We hope you like it!   It's been modelled and cast for us by John Lowen at Ironclad Miniatures and he's done a cracking job on it.  We've got some more new resin products planned with John, so we'll have more to come soon!

Ironclad Miniatures offer a huge variety of products in various scales and genres, and better still they've got a '20% Off January Sale' running until Sunday night (Jan 10th)!  Head over and have a look: http://www.ironcladminiatures.co.uk/ (http://www.ironcladminiatures.co.uk/)

Always been impressed with Ironclad's stuff and that is no exception.

Not something I need though ... well, not at the moment ... adds an entry in the "to buy from Pendraken" spreadsheet!

As someone who only recently scratch built his own wooden bridge using Milliput and matchsticks (thinking what's better looking than a wooden bridge made of real wood?), I can only say, "Why did I bother?'  ~X(

Nice bridge!  :-bd

Like the looks of the sectional bridges! If sometime you did the same think with stone arch bridges that would be truly awsome (just in case you had know idea about what to do next :))

It would be super to have a damaged/broken version as well for those moments when stuff goes wrong. For our recent Nechanitz, the whole rate of arrival of the Prussians depends on one rickety bridge that collapsed periodically and which had to be rebuilt several times. We had to drill holes into our existing bridge and patch it up with matchsticks, which took longer than it did in 1866.

For broken version, remove one of the roadway sections, scatter some broken cocktail sticks, et voila! ... damaged section.

We'll see how the sales go and we might add a ruined one further down the line.

Just bought this bridge and I am very impressed with the quality and versatility .... This is going to see a lot of table time. Good to see Pendraken moving forward on terrain pieces.
