Work continues with all the buildings cut out and assembled. The bastion has been finished today and some parapets added around the main gate entrance, and various other locations. The final position of the horse corral and outside walled enclosure is not finalised yet. The aim is to have a ramshackle set of walls and improvised fencing along with a horno (oven).

All the rough edges will be covered once it's rendered. Next will be cutting doors, windows etc which is my favourite part. However progress has slowed up due to me slipping a disc in my lower back this week, so I have laid up in bed for three days...

Great looking mate - this is going to be epic!  :-*

Interested if you do use SI's talcum method. Can you do some work in progress shots if you do?
