The King, governor and civilians of Tyre wish the founders of our new Colony much prosperity by the developing of their city and surrounding fields.
Felix am I hallucinating?
This is great and funny, to see exact copies of my wall sections. I don't know that pink foam but judging the crispy look of it, and the way you sculpted that tile tower roof with it, it must be fine material. I think you succeeded completely in your attempt and its clear you are a skillful modeler.
Talking about this kind of model fortifications I would like to share with you two other similar projects that were, together with mine, all developed in the same period, as it looks like.
GAMING ALEXANDERS SIEGE OF TYRE:
Philip Viverito from U.S.A. made a huge, fantastic 28mm model of Tyre for gaming purposes, owned by Tom Young.
These gentlemen did a great job by building such a large scenery and fleet. It is all build in the 8th century BC period style with those typical triangular crenelations as its depicted on Assyrian reliefs. Alexanders fleet looks like its been made of paper ship models and some resin ones.

ANCIENT GREEK CITY WALLS
ARCHAEO.SYS developed a digital 3D system of ancient Greek citywalls:
It is clearly based upon the information from both Osprey books, the same sources I used when I started to build some of my wall sections. It looks like a very nice system but it is difficult to find out if this is for computer purpose only or if it is possible to print it in 3D for tabletopgaming or modelism.
