I have a 3D printed mausoleum bought on the internet that is almost identical except that the stonework on the sides is not nearly so textured.  Did you tinker with the stonework?  If so, with what method?

No this is a cast resin price bought from Tabletop World.   This is how it was cast.   The only modification I made was adding a few gravestones and a base.   I do add my own texture to the gravestones though.

I went back to mine and I see now it shares much of the same elements (roof and ?lamps? but is not the same everywhere ( yours is much nicer and better painted!).  Mine isn?t as detailed, no buttresses, maybe a first draft?or a pirated model. I don?t know where my came from, I bought it via Amazon a few years back.

You need bigger brushes then! lol

Thanks for the heads up!

Mostly Debris of War with a few bits I had left over.    I need to add in a few sprues of Renedra headstones so they don?t stand out as oddly different in the graveyard.   All the Debris ones have a plinth at the bottom, and I?m tempted to remove a few?otherwise, they are pretty cool and wound need any texture adding before painting.



The styrene sheets go have also arrived and I?m just waiting on the Pavillion.


Edit:

Start made on the next few plates

Renedra stones arrived so these are drying now, ready for painting in due course.

These additional plates, along with the Pavillion when it lands, will grow the cemetery by about 40% which is about as much as I think I want it now.   It?s possible I may do a few small pieces as and when a particular statue or feature grabs my attention.   Once I get my hands on the church, I may have to make a few best fit pieces, who knows.

It's gone from being a parish graveyard to Highgate fairly quickly. You'll need to find an appropriately sized bust of Karl Marx soon.  ;)

That many dead people in one small village? You will have to call it Midsommer and install a Witchfinder-Inspector Barnaby in your cast of characters. :D

Ya ought to add a scratch built version of the Watts Cemetery Chapel at Compton to the mix.  If i were undead ( or just dead), i could not think of a prettier space to hangout.  I have told my wife to scatter my ashes there.
