Again, great with the texture! :-* Is that the plaster version or polystyrene one?

Thank you!!

Again, great with the texture! :-* Is that the plaster version or polystyrene one?

The latter. I liked the results and more importantly took me about one third of the time to sculpt.  I did the whole set in the picture in less than 3 hours. :)

Thanks again, hopefully tonight i'll manage to do a few casts and try to structure the first building!

Also, another mold is being cured, and tonight i'll be able to show off the beaming as well!

I finally managed to build the first complete building (although it's a 90% WIP for now) using my modular stone edges... seems to work pretty well!







I dare to say that the edges are rather invisible, are they?

C&C welcome, prettyplease? :)

That's excellent! :o I must admit....I don't see the joins! o_o

I managed to see your concrete bunkers first hand yesterday and must say I'm even more impressed than I was when I seen the pictures you posted!! I never realised how small they were!

Yes, invisible edges! Great job on the stonework components, and also putting together such a cute little building.

Yep, I'd say you've cracked it! I see no joins, and I think they way you have the odd protruding stone ties it all together once assembled.

Thank you everyone! That's some great feedback, i think i might be ready to go for full stone floors after that! That would be something interesting to do! Maybe only for the ground floors, but might work well for multi storey buildings!

I managed to see your concrete bunkers first hand yesterday and must say I'm even more impressed than I was when I seen the pictures you posted!! I never realised how small they were!
Thank you Andy! :) They sure are some small fellas, yeah! :) Hopefully i'll manage to release the 28mm buildings with Spectre soon enough! :)

Meanwhile, that's the COMPLETED house, now awaiting a few coats of paint!









Cheers
Jack

Please, craving for suggestions! :(

Lovely painting on the house. I agree with the previous comment though - the grass is a bit too green for it.

Wow! :o I wouldn't worry too much about the grass! Once it's on a board it'll blend in! It's only a bit jarring because it's the only green seen in the photo!
