Made some buildings for a fishing village. These are one of the TT Combat mdf sets, modified a bit as usual.

Lovely stuff! Where are the boats from?

[Osmoses]

Thanks. Two of the boats are mdf by TT Combat, the other is 3D printed from recent Nippon Saga 2 Kickstarter

Some of the watery and fishy stuff is also useful for the Sakai waterfront setting.

Agreed. I've been to your blog earlier today (and IIRC ran into a reddit post of yours as well) whilst looking up Feudal Japanese village pictures for reference. Excellent job indeed!

Very keen to see fences on here. With sengoku period Japanese stuff I'm really out of my element. It's funny, because with European medieval stuff you generally have an idea how certain things were done, how agriculture worked (roughly) and so on. With Japanese things I sit down and think "okay, I guess I should add some

• to the collection", and instantly realize I have no idea how
• was done there, if
• was even a thing, and so on.

A couple of years ago I started reading about medieval Japanese agriculture, what kind of crops were grown, field layout etc. After several hours I thought, 'hang on, this is wargaming, not academia,' and went back to artist reconstructions and TV dramas for inspiration.

I started making this distinctive style of fence (takehogaki) a while back. Inevitably you can get them 3D printed now, but it's a bamboo skewer framework filled with brush bristles.





For more fence styles, and anything else to do with Japanese architecture, I'd recommend https://www.aisf.or.jp/~jaanus/, which sometimes also gives you the period a particular feature was introduced.

Your version looks better than 3d printed. As hand-made things usually do.

Thanks for the link; that website is a great resource! Btw, your thatched roofs look great too.

I like the towns you're building up! Especially having both the Sakai and mountain village gives you some nice gaming options.
