Great work, as always, James!

What material did you use to represent the shingles - scribed wood?

Great looking terrain - very atmospheric and beautiful use of muted colours.

Superb work as ever James. Frankly, I'm in awe.  :o

As an aside, I have always wondered about that top-knot hairstyle you see on Samurai, the Toshiro Mifune short back and sides. Thinking about it, and looking at the chap in the middle of your pic I've concluded it was a shrewd way of getting around the 'comb over' in the absence of Brylcream.

Normally, I don't click on links...  ::)

But in this case I made an exception...  :D

Great work! The cherry tree and the garden pulls it all stunning together.  :-*

Really rather gorgeous.  :-*

Amazing how much stuff you can pack onto a foot square board for maximum game play, but still leave it feeling open and uncluttered. From that perspective, even more inspirational.

Pretty much, quite soft balsa wood  :)
