Hi Codsticker.
It is all one piece. All roofs lift off, floors lift out.
All doors are hinged to open.

Really amazing. How do find painting a complex piece like that? It strikes me as it might be a bit difficult with all the nooks and crannies you have to get at.

  Painting this model is easier than you think.
I spray paint it first with varying shades of the desired colour.

Dry brushing with various shades of stone/ tile colours.
A light dry and brush and then a wash of a glue/ paint mix I came up with to take off any sheen.

I also mortar up the stonework.

Get carried away sometimes it's hard to stop.

I will post progress pics
