Thanks guys, much appreciated  :)

Just started running back through this thread, amazing work.So what is the count up to now?

Well....over a thousand I guess...I’ll have a proper count again at some point soon...coming up to the second anniversary of the project, so maybe I’ll try a group shot  :)

This weekend, inspired, by the gorgeous looking watchtower that HappyChappy commissioned, I thoughT I’d have a go at building a small holdfast...

I’ve pinched the idea of the banner hooks, either side of the entrance.

That's an amazing looking start so far, can't wait to see it painted up! Now you just need a Yoren to hold it!  :D

Silly question but where did you get the door from?

Honestly, either I need a new thesaurus or they need to come up with a superlative form of 'prolific', because that is insane.

I absolutely love it - it's bloody huge! Will be a commanding presence on the battlefield alright. Any chance those trebuchets will see tabletop at the same time? ;)

 :o I absolutely did not expect to see in between replying to the post earlier today, and finishing work, that it would be finished!

It looks great finished up! Amazing work!

Great stuff :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
So that was a roller you used for the stone texture?
Was it one of those for green  stuff?
