Some Adobe buildings, and a Shed
« on: February 13, 2021, 10:59:24 PM »
All the buildings
Most are by Tactical Conflict Systems, a small scenery maker of days gone by. I Am not sure who made the L-shaped adobe building or the shed. Either could be TCS or not.



-----

Largest adobe building
The casting quality of this one is a little better than the others and the style is a little bit different --larger bricks and cleaner details.


-----

Two medium buildings
These are nearly identical, aside from their individual casting issues and different roof parts.



-----

Little, bitty building
The smallest building is, essentially, the front half of the medium ones with a different back wall.



-----

The Shed
This represents my first attempt to use the "Hairspray paint-chipping technique." I am tolerably well-pleased with the outcome.  The door was missing, so I made replacement out of match sticks and a bit of paper clip wire.

I love it.  Can’t wait to see what games you play with them.

Thanks! I actually don't have any specific gaming plans for them. They actually belong to my brother, and I painted them just for practice. Maybe when I finish repainting the rest of his western scenery, and the pandemic abates, he will try running an Old West scenario at a local con again.

I really like the chipped paint on the shed too.

I really like the colors of you Adobe buildings. There is an area outside of Tulerosa, NM, where is dirt has a very unusual brown color with a tinge of “red”. It’s the most beautiful soil I have ever seen. The color of the bricks in you Adobe looks very close to that color. I have been trying to find a way to replicate that color. You have come very close to it.

Good stuff, yours is.
