Title: Mexican Adobe Church
Post by: Malamute on May 01, 2008, 04:55:48 PM

Here are some photos of an adobe church I have just finished for my ongoing Alamo project. It will also be used for general western gunfights or even pirate games.
There is a detailed description of what it was made of and some work in progress shots on the Workbench board.

That looks as though it's come straight out of the Sharpe TV series. I could see the Chosen Men defending that one quite easily....

Very nice work indeed.

I can almost hear the friars at matins...

...and the muskets belching out death.

Like the Sharpe comment. Heh.

Would be most worthy also of some Magnificent Seven, or Wild West adventures.

Exceptional work.

A hint on the texturing? Hmmm..?

What kind of plaster did you use for the walls? They sure look very "adobeish" to me  :)

really nice work. Love it :love:

Its Polyfilla( Uk product) a basic filler. Its watered down and softened with a paintbrush. Then rubbed downw ith sand paper when dry prior to painting.
