Default Greek Camp

This is a camp I created for my Greek armies. The shepherd is a converted Xyston Psiloi; the sheep may be by Chariot but I don't remember. The hut is from Baueda.

Detail on the Baueda hut. I had it stuck on top of the hill when I first made this camp but the camp didn't look right at all. I remembered seeing a hut (a real one)very much like this, still in use, on top of a remote mountain in Kosovo back in 2006. It was in a more sheltered, natural position alongside a ridge. So I placed the along the hillside and made the whole camp in a more circular theme. The hut is a circle, the ridge is a half-circle, the sheep are in a half-circle, etc. It seems to work now.

Closeup of the hut:



And a surprise hidden between the trees and the ridge:



A wolf (from Peter Pig I believe) circling around behind the herd!
