And one other thing i got dyslexia so don't expect a novel.

Step one, of to work on the long house.



Step two, Roof painted chimney added.



Step Three, On whit the straw effect and the boards. Cut open the windows.



Step Four, graying down the wood.



Step Five, Painting roof finishing touches.



Sens this one was a test it received only 2 rows of straw, and the roof can be lifted away so wen you occupy the house you lift of the roof and set up your units inside.

Step 1: I got my hands on a pair of railroad entrances at my local hobby shop, the last they got.


Step 2: Sorry didn't take the first picture until the top main floor was finished.


Step 3: I shortened the entrances in both hight and with and glued them in an L shape.


Step 4: Here I'm just trying to get a feel for the finished product.


Step 5: First floor almost finished


Step 6: Another test to see that i didn't make the ground floor to short.


Step 7: Ground floor frame finished.


Step 8: the roof was completed around stage 2 - 3.


Step 9: Ordinary plaster and flower decoration stones from a flower shop.


Step 10: Second floor half finished.


Step 11: Just finished whit the second floor .


Another roof test.


Step 12: Finished the first floor, got hard to find proper stones towards the end.


Step 13: Started work on the work aria roof, and the furnace.

Step 15: More work on the support frame over the work aria.


Step 16: Finished the support frame.


Step 17: Made the roof and glued it on.


Step 18: Integrated the furnace to the work aria roof.


Step 19: thus far i had planed to make furniture to the house hence the stow and the chimney. But i decided against it. so the boards on the inside was really not necessary. I also added sides to the house roof. and glued it on permanently.


Step 20: The chimney got its treatment whit plaster and stones, and i started the strawing effect.


Step 21: Then i remembered to paint the darn thing.


Step 22: a few hours later the strawing was finished.


Step 23: Now i decided it was a Joly good time to start adding boards to the outside wall on the ground floor.


Step 24: Added boards on the roof, added ground effects (gravel and Grass). Just drench the aria in watered down glue and poor on sand and grass mix (green saw dust in this case).


Step 25: Painted it all nice and proper.


Step 26: Finished of the work aria support and added a below, fixed the furnace, grayed down the roof, painted the boards on the first floor brown, panted the chimney tops.

Status: Work in progress, needs some more finishing.

This looks brilliant these are definitely convincingly real fantasy structures with a great deal of detail. I'm really impressed by the foundry. I also like the definite Scandinavian feel to the structures which is rare to see.

Wen I first started to think about the church i was making my two Imperial Bastion's and had a few peaces over Namely the shutters you can put in place instead of your gun emplacements. So I sniped of the top and sanded down the side shown, leaving the little figures intact. Panted em dark gray & dried brushed em whit light gray.



I'm not sure how i ended up whit em but i got two skull panels from a Basilica Administratum building. First i decided to use them as lay down graves bu they were to short for that so i glued on some sides this morning and made them in to wall panels to the crypt. I also used two wall sections as decoration on the church and 4 window sections. As Well as one Door frame from same box.


So Of to my trusted hobby shop were i bought a standard GW Walls & Fences Box

So now i was set to start.

Step 1: I started by figuring out how to use the Walls & Fences parts. And i also made a test of the walkways. Problem was the board got warped so i had to make another one, to much glue i guess.


Step 2: So after scratching my head regarding the graves and the walls and fences i started on the church.




Step 3: My tea pot is finished, at this stage it sure looked Hilarius.



Just a display image so show whats finished.

Step 4: Started whit the roof. I have seen Wood cabins whit thin peaces of wood tiles in a mis match pattern, Shingles. But way to large on my first try. Luckily i had only made two rows and used tape.


Step 4: Tor of the large ones and started again whit smaller ones.

And kept going


And going



Step 5: Finally got tired of my teapot, tore the tower away cut a V shape in the frame and showed it on the roof.


Step 6: Finlay finished the roofing, and added a door frame.

Step 8: Added rear windows, plaster and stones.


Step 9: Added front decoration, as well as plaster and stones.



Another Display image.

Step 10: Added boards on the bell tower.


Step 11: Started panting the roof, as well as plaster and stones on the sides.
