Fortress fever (2) - adding the glacis

Having upgraded my fortress sections, I cut two base boards out of 3mm MDF, one for the main gate and the other for the fortress side....
I marked out the ditch, covered way 'step' in pencil then trialled the setup with some foam board and cardboard...
then happy with the look of it, I had a lots of fun cutting up and fixing the elements of the glacis to the base boards.
next bit to do is the defence works by the front gate..

Looks impressive already. I am interested in seeing how the demi-lune fits into the scheme of things.
