Title: My Old West buildings...
Post by: Euthanasor on April 19, 2011, 12:29:55 PM: here is my little contribution to this magnificent forum.

My blog is in french but I'll try to explain what you'd like to see explained. ^^

The last building I made is the barber shop. I had some dificulties with the sign I didn't want to paint on the irregular wooden slats.

Those two ones were made last month:

It's my first message and I had troubles to put the link.

Thank you!
Yes, they 're scratch built. I explain most of the steps in my blog where you can find a hôtel, a stable, a blacksmith, accessories...

Hey folks there are only three buildings on the pics above, but he made a whole town :o

There was some terrible fightings in there last week-end (there was a games convention in St-Méen-le-Grand, Brittany). Euthanasor do you have a picture of the horrible slaughter in the stables with all the dead corpses (that was Saturday)? :D

Post by: Euthanasor on April 19, 2011, 06:31:45 PM: Yes, I have a few pictures of the horrible massacre that took place in the stable, now known as "The Bloody Barn".
4 galloping riders entered the barn where Patrice's guys where hidden.
Hum... not a so good idea. :D

Post by: Gluteus Maximus on April 26, 2011, 09:22:14 PM: What is it with the French and really beautiful Old West set-ups :?

Every gamer in France seems to do this period and do it superbly well.

Magnifique!

Thanks.
I use a small pot (50 ml) of an acrylic paint called "Corn", "Lefranc Bourgeois" (I'm sure you can find this paint out of France) with inconstant touch of GW "Bestial Brown".
