I really don't know how I missed this thread. I'm at a total loss for words. It's gorgeous work!!! The painting is AMAZING but what's really amazing is it's all scratchbuilt.  :o :o :-*

You really should be making masters of stuff like that for resin casting, so the rest of us can have nice buildings like that.  :D

I don't know if you are aware but Geoff Coe (Shipka) passed away,In July I believe.

Now that is incredibly sad. What club was he with?

Just found this thread, and its amazing!
If I may ask, what are the roof tiles made of (maybe its somwhere written, but I havent read all the text)? Im scratchbuilding medieval japanese buildings for Bushido, and Im a little stuck with effective making of roof tiles...

Hello,
Sad that Shipka has passed away. For applying the Das clay to the foamboard do you aply first PVA glue on the foamboard? Or as i saw on youtube where someone mixed the glue in the clay? The biggest problem is also finding windows and doors in mdf.
Thanks for Any advise.

Try Warbases in their 'From Scratch' section.

If he does, I (& I'm sure lots of others) would be interested. :)

Would guess cartonboard or foamex.

Great build by the way.
