Tipis typical


Today I'll explain how I made my first Indian teepees.
The tipi (or tepee) is the traditional home of most Plains Indian tribes.
I have not managed to find the specific reasons for each of these and other tribes, also the reasons that I painted are a sample of all those
I could glean, Sioux, Cheyenne, Blackfeet, Crows or others.



The Indian village will be at the heart of
several scenarios for "6 Gun Sound"
with, among other things, a game project in
campaign "Plains Indian" for the same Thurs

I wanted to initially make tepees that could have been open to see the interior and to be able to hide any figures. The prototype "working" I realized that being neither beautiful nor practical, I folded a
other system.


My teepees are made of cardboard bases, and circular hollow. They may well cover the figures that will be hidden inside.

I carried out the same as that governing assembly of the real Indian teepees. So we must begin by linking the first 3 poles, arranged in an equilateral triangle (marked on the base). I have connected with the piece of twine and have been glued to the base. The other 6 poles were arranged regularly between these three there. Be meticulous in their disposal to do something harmonious and retain the roughly conical shape of the whole. All 9 poles had been tied up and glued down.
The canvas is paper towels, moistened, dressed in wood glue.









The "wetting / sizing" is done on a transparent film which facilitates handling.
Staples wooden ensuring closure of the envelope are sharp and cut wood were stuck into the paper (before pasting, otherwise everything will tear). The piece with clips was reported and pasted from above, at the entrance.
The upper vents (ears for evacuation of smoke) were then reported as the poles that keep them open in a second time.


The "canvas", once dry, was painted four times. Brown, beige, and then sets the clarification of all these colors.

few scalps and ribbons adorn the top of some poles
. They were made of paper towels or absorbent paper
.
stakes were placed around at the base prior to coating, sand and paint the basement.
The tufts of grass that I cherish to this day were then stuck around.


























My goal is to achieve an Indian camp
complete with many civilians, horses "naked" dogs (many Indians around the camps) and accessories. Unfortunately, despite the large number of providers of figurines, these issues are rarely addressed, too, I am currently a large census / muster figures which I need, even to modify / create some. But that this is another story ... and it will be somewhat more complicated. Hugh!
