Yet! lol

 lol

Btw I’ve been thinking about the purpose of the side track and I’ve decided that it will lead to a barn. Specifically, a Grange Barn that is an outlier from a since destroyed monastery.



It will be in the planked style.

Splendid idea :)

Looks like you're in the thicket of this project - the terrain and figs are looking great!

Needless to say, this is great.

Are the buildings already fixed down? I was wondering if it's going to be tricky to get your paintbrush in to all the tight corners when it comes to painting it, especially the house fronts either side of the street?

Thanks folks!

They’re not going to be fixed until after they’re painted. You’re right that it’d be pretty much impossible to paint if fixed first. It annoys me a little as I really dislike painting before final assembly  :D

 The houses separate from the baseboard with freshly added chimneys.

When the glue has cured, I’ll start on beams and plaster.

Re: 17thC England: UD 3/3: part 2 Chimneys, beams & daub added to houses

You’re too kind  :D

Have now added extra beams and the daub (which is just a patchwork of 0.25mm plasticard). When it’s all cured I need to engrave detail (woodgrain etc) and fill gaps and create texture using GS and liquid GS.

It’s looking stunning - and you’re doing Whitechapel as well! :o

Thanks chaps

I’ll be working on the GS for Whitechapel at the same time as this hamlet - am trying to be efficient.  :D Though today I have been distracted by cataloguing my Bicorne lead pile for Pikemans Lament.  :o

It will be in the planked style.

And here it is (WIP as I have some gap filling to do with GS etc):











It’s been made from 2 sets of Renedra Dilapidated Barn, that I was able to pick up for a good price.
