The Rose Farm in 10mm

The Rose Farm was the site of some of the bloodiest battles of Gettysburg.  On the second day of the battle, Confederates occupied the farm house and the barn, using them as cover and a field hospital.  The area known as 'The Wheatfield' occupies this property where over 6,000 soldiers were killed or wounded.

This is a 10mm set of buildings from Buildings In Turmoil.  Im not QUITE finished yet (im going to arrange the buildings, add some fencing and some trees, and finally finish it as a piece to use on a 10mm battlefield) but the house and the barn are totally painted and ready to go.
