Nice paintjob! I like the brown you used for the wood.

And the roof looks fantastic  :o

Nice and will painted and very much in keeping with the twenties,a back wood shack that may hold dark secrets.

Never underestimate some good sections of cereal card and stir-sticks.

Oh, and I spot a Gummer. :)

I really like the look of the building.  Makes me wish I was better at building scenery.  Very inspirational.

You have a great gaming table. Great work. I have seen the CiC houses too and your work there is fantastic too!!

Yep, and a good paintjob to hide that's build from rubbish! lol

Nice and will painted and very much in keeping with the twenties,a back wood shack that may hold dark secrets.

That was the target,a little bit lovecraft style(you don't know what's waiting behind the doors!!)

Absolutely fantastic, I did a double take when I read you scratch built these. Something I can't do myself (always looking for pre-made) but I figure I've go to learn sometime, and I think you've inspired me. Is the barn in the background built in a similar style as well? Looking for shacks and a barn for a Dunwich Horror campaign.

Would you be willing to post some pointers? A mini-guide perhaps? Or at least link us to the thread you mentioned inspired some of your techniques. I just don't know where to begin!

Thanks for any help and once again, fantastic stuff my man.

Thank's, and believe me you also can build such a shack or barn!
with learning  some basic technics you will be able to build many things!
When i'm making the next house, i will make a step by step tutorial.
That will help you a little bit.

That building looks great, really adds to your board, from what I can see. :)
I've built an almost identical little shed (little building to the left - is it a toilet??)
from coffee stirrers, just need to fix the door in place and finish painting.
Great minds think alike! :)

That looks really ace! Very creepy... the backwater American setting has been captured really well.

Any chance you could list some measurements you used? I'd like to try making something like this!

No limited measurements,this house is 17cm (ca 7 inch) long and10cm wide.(ca.4 inch)
for the floors i use mostly 6cm (2,5 inch) high.
I take a mini beside and when it looks realistic,than it works for me.

Excellent buildings.
Could be used in many periods.
Love the brick work on the last building.
But don't think I would want to use the door to go down to the cellar.
Who knows what you might find, or what might find you. :o
