Sarissa Compound Wall Set

 A while back Sarissa produced a secure compound set for Warlord for their lamentable Project-Z game. Sarissa later released it and the walls separately under their own branding. I bought the full compound set, but have only built (some) of the walls.

The kit comes as one of their about A4 sized packs. It builds seven wall sections and one section with a gate.

The wall sections are in laser cut card, as is the facing for the gates (though I used Slater's 7mm corrugated sheet for this build).

The bases for the walls and gate sections. Note the right hand end has holes for the gate sections in all three sections.

Lamps and gates.
Here are the posts assembled and the base chamfered.
Assembled but unpainted. I did add some Milliput to fill in any gaps on the top of the wall where it is folded over.


Here are three wall sections and a gate section in use as a small compound. Empress US Army figures for scale. One of the other sections is at the back (and the other three sections are in various stages of assembly, which will quadruple the area of the compound).
The bases were chamfered with a half round file - the idea is that the posts are fitted to a concrete base.
The walls and base were sprayed with Plasticote Rust Effect paint to add some texture. This was then sprayed with Halfords grey spray primer, then a light dusting with Halfords black primer, a dusting again with the grey and a final almost zenithal  spray with Citadel Corax White.
The base was washed with Citadel Agrax Eartshade and the walls with Citadel Nuln Oil.
The gates were painted separately. Halfords grey spray primer, an "anti-zenithal" spray with Citadel Chaos Black followed by washes with Citadel Agrax Earthshade and Citadel Nuln Oil.

Empress Cadillac Gage Commando V100 leaves the compound.

It will fit through the gate without the hard top, not wit it installed.
