Thanks chaps 

How many houses will there be?

Around 30 but they’ll be built in blocks like this just to make it a bit easier.

Is the reddish building a representation of sangue di bue? If so, I'm  well impressed. That's a very old Italian tradition mixing bull's blood into render to get that colouration.

They look jolly good either way.

[Malamute]

They look great.

Those are beautiful buildings- really wonderful work.

Clay earth in the area. Haven't been told if they did that for there.

Amazing work James. 

Do you get to play a game on it when it's done?

[OSHIROmodels]

Cheers fella. I'm going to try a little game just at the front (shown below) before it goes to Salute. I won;t be playing at Salute though as I don't know the rules and I'm expecting to be talking most of the day to people

I've done an area around the main entrance to test the flocking and walls colours. There are still a few details to add (and the painting isn't complete) but I think it will be good enough to proceed with the rest. The drawbridge is weighted and I'll do a video on that when the rear of it is complete.

The lighting today was awful and I haven't got my decent lights set up outside yet but I will have for next time
