Clearly above average! Very nice wethering techniques. Could you give us the dirt on the dirt, please?

Thanks guys for comments !
Glad you like them... they're all scratchbuild with balsa wood and some cardboard.
Wood is colored with oil paints (diluted with turpentine) to avoid planks "sculpting" disapppearance : one brown wash followed by a very diluted dark wash. Weathering is done with acrilycs drybrush.

I was wondering if you did from blueprints, or plans or how you did them.  I'm starting to replace my "cardboard boxes" and would love any information, tips, or suggestions you might have for other builders.

Cheers!

They are really nice. At first I thought they were premade buildings!!

They LOOK nice, but I think you should send them to me so I can check them out, it sould only take about five years or so  :lol:
What do you mean you never got them back? I did send them.

Seriously, I am seriously impressed.
