A Qiang one to be precise :)
Fairly simple commission as I've built a couple of them before, seems a popular choice lol
Just a very quick undercoat on it for now and I'll have a play with the rattle cans when the weather gets a bit less wet.

Still some wooden internal bits to do but it's easier to paint the stone before it goes on and before anyone mentions it, there's going to be a cloth door cover for the top doorway ;)
Still groundwork to apply also.

Wow!

Very nice James. :-* :-*
Was it built also brick by brick or did you used already made sheets of plastic with texture?
(no joke wanted, just a simple question). :)

Hmm James, you have forgotten to paint it. Any reason why? Or do you working on chinese/japanese in Black and White Style like Carsten????
-
This is so awesome, James :-*
-
Cool! :-*
-
Brilliant! ;D I'm kinda gutted though it's not done with single bricks! ;)

This was always one of my favourites from your Oshiro site. Are the resin sheet moulds single or double sided?

Thanks again fellas :)

Single clad on both sides of whatever sheet material I've used.
Hopefully get some more colours on it tonight :)

Nice work as always, James. Note that it is 'Qiang' (without a 'u'):

Perry Korean for scale as I don't have any Chinese.

Lovely work, if a bit monochrome - but that will change once the woodwork and base are finished.
-
To be honest, there's a damn sight more colours in it in reality :?
And they the camera never lies lol
cheers
James

Absolutely delightful :)

Just clocked this, mate.
Nice work.

Looking closely you can see a fair bit of colour in it.
Looking good!
:-* :-*

Thanks fellas :)
Should have an update on it by the weekend.
The sheets are from Wills, available from most decent hobby shops :)

Unfortunately I am in the US, and my searching hasn't turned up any US distributors for Wills. The one big model railroad styrene sheet maker over here doesn't seem to have any stone patterns either.
How feasible do you think carving this type of rough stone pattern would be? I am aiming to make my Frostgrave buildings in this style (Tibet, Bhutan, Western China), and I know the pencil method for larger inca-style rounded stones, but these squared off, very irregular Himalayan stonework patterns seem like they'd be tougher to pull off. Any advice?

Wonderful terrain piece James, great job with it. 8)
Will there be more to follow?
-
A bit later than I would've liked but its complete and in the post tomorrow.

Any advice?
Carving from blue foam (or whichever foam is your preference) would be very time consuming so you might bite the bullet and go with a bit of a postage charge :?
cheers

'bout time it was finished. :D
Looks great though and well worth the wait. ;D

That's just gorgeous Jimmy lad. :-* :-*
Hupp, how about Plastruct 91561?

Oh wow, now I'm really envious :o 8) 8) 8)

That James, is a thing of beauty :-*
Well done indeed. Of all you gazillion model buildings, that's one of my favourites ever.
Is it heading off to the land of Extraordinary Kriegspielers by any chance? Or is it some other lucky (yet patient) customer? lol

Excellent work James :-* :-* Nice to see this finished. The drainage marks and final stone highlighting really brings the tower to life.

Very nice. Simple looking but so much little details! I'd give it a go but it would end up looking like those Expectations vs Reality memes.
-
A really beautiful piece of work!
-
All along the watchtower!
That is a magnificent tower. I am a little sad that it is not for a BLAM game. But alas. lol
