... and here is the first photo of the action. The pic below is a comparison pic that I used to loosely base the thatch house on. Can you spot all the differences in the pictures? :wink:

your house has only two windows :lol:
looks great!

to make your picture more photo-like, have a look at this tutorial (http://www.perry-miniatures.com/pictures.html).
how did you made the roof? modelled it or is it broom hair or fur with white glue?

I love Perry miniatures! If only they would do more zombies, but I guess that would break their no-competition deal with GW... I just threw that pic together in a hurry, so I only smudged what I absolutely had to! Thanks for posting the link!
As for materials for the house, I am almost done an article which is an expose on all of the popular thatch methods as well as a few not-so-popular ones. I will post a link when it is done (hopefully tomorow).

That article is great!
I've had some African mud huts I began over a year ago, just sitting around because the thatch roof was taking too long. Your towel method will be attempted this weekend and hopefully I can have something to show for it next week.
Thanks for sharing.
