Chris, it looks GREAT - I'm going to pop this across to the 'General Wargames Discussion' board, because it's a way more useful kit of parts than for medieval use alone

Thanks Capn'! Curis has done a wonderful job again, and Zhu's logo is amazing!

Have some Fogou stone huts, and they are excellent quality! This looks really neat, will definitely take a look at this even though I have no apparent use....

A very nice looking set of kits, with which I could bulk out my NWF village. Cracking use of crackle medium on the walls in that picture. I am going to try that.

These look great, not sure if I have any use for them myself, but I think the star Wars Legion crowd might be interested as they'd make great Tatooine buildings, so I posted them on the Legion boards of the FFG forum and the SWLegion subreddit, Good Luck!

Hi all, please forgive the forwarding of this speed painting tutorial, thought i'd show you how you can get table-ready results toot sweet with these buildings.

There was no washing off mould release as none is used, and the model wasn't undercoated, it was all done with drybrushing and washes straight onto the resin. This is a real time saver.
Remember that we are running a 20% off Black Friday sale TODAY, use the code 'THEYLIVEWASRIGHT' and either chose 'Kickstarter' shipping if you wish to have your order sent out with your order (please make a note of your order number)

https://www.fogoumodels.co.uk/

First off, a fairly heavy drybrush of Vallejo Model Colour 'Pale Sand' (This is slightly lighter than Bleached Bone), favouring the top half of the wall, points on the facade and ledge, and gradually easing up towards the base of the building.

Now a lighter drybrush of VMC White.

Now a 60/40 water/Agrax Earthshade wash all over, taking time to roughly push a bit extra into the cracks. The resin will 'drink' up the shade more than you might expect, so you might want to do another wash after the first has dried, as I did.

A final light drybrush of white over all the edges and we're done! You may wish to varnish at this stage, but the paint will stick to the model a lot better than you might expect from other materials.

There we have it! Almost all the range can be painted this way, you really can get this stuff table-ready in no time.
Thanks for reading, backing and supporting! F.M.
