Renedra Windmill – 28mm (1/56) Hard Plastic Wargaming Model Kit – Renedra Limited

The Definitive Battlefield Objective

TheRenedra Windmillis an essential landscape feature for 28mm tabletops, representing the pinnacle of UK-engineered injection-molded plastic. This1/56 (28mm) scalekit is a “system-agnostic” masterpiece, representing a typical Western European windmill—particularly the types often seen in Spain—making it equally at home on Napoleonic battlefields as it is in the gothic-horror setting ofThe Silver Bayonetor the fantasy realms ofWarhammer: The Old World.

Molded in high-impact polystyrene (HIPS), the kit features deep textures optimized for dry-brushing and washes. Unlike resin alternatives, the hard plastic allows for a permanent “solvent-weld” using standard plastic cement, ensuring the windmill remains a durable centerpiece for years of competitive play. The versatile design allows it to be used for any period of history from the medieval era to the present day.
