From MartinC Village of Kujumachi (80 points)

I have built, Ok I have bought and painted, a 28mm Japanese village circa 1601. The village of Kujumachi is in the foothills of Kuju Mountains in Higo Province at the extreme south of Japan. It has recently been given to Kato Kiyomasa as part of the land granted to him by Tokugawa Ieyasu as reward for support in the Battle of Sekigahara.

Blue dot marks the spot

Kiyomasa was a successful general in the Injin War and a fundamentalist Buddhist and hated the Christians that we becoming dominant in the province.

The aim is to fight skirmishes, duels and generally have adventures in this village. I have the advantage that I can keep it laid out for as long as I want

Kujumachi Village - 3ft by 4ft. Village to the left (South) and Farm land and waterwheel to the right

Looking North

Looking South

So that would be loads of points apart from the fact that most of it already existed. I have however built and painted a lot to the buildings in the last couple of days.

Waterwheel mill - Sarissa. Fiddly to built out of mdf but looks really great

the front door

Small farms and animal pens - again Sarissa

some form of shop - from ebay (banksjohnedwars). Really like this guys stuff. Simple but study and very cheap

House - ebay again

Dojo - for all your martial prowess (ebay)

temple cells - Sarissa. roof has warped due to paint. Plan to use as shops

another house - guess from where

another house - sarissa

So that is a lot of houses and they add up to 4 terrain boxes so 80 points.

All I have to do now is paint loads more villagers and animals.

Wow, this is absolutely awesome, Martin. I love the whole idea of having a little, fully realised skirmish board ready and waiting in the wings. Can I come over to play? I'll bring some figures, beer and crisps.

The buildings look terrific. That watermill is pretty darn impressive and so are those eBay finds. I have a few Sarissa pieces from this range and can attest to their good quality. I'm also happy to see your village bell nestled in the posh part of town. Now, do you have enough figures to fill all of this? I hope not as I'd like to see more of Kujumachi. 

80 points for you sir. Thanks for sharing this great project.
