Love the way you have blended the putty stone work with the resin model.

Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

It's still getting better and better. Amazing!
Btw: What do you use for putty?

Cheers!

Looks fantastic so far. I can’t wait to see how it looks when it’s finished.

Thanks all :)

Btw: What's do you use for putty

Thus far, for the stonework and flagstones, I've used either white milliput or standard milliput. White was used in a few places but mostly for around the garret window, as the white is finer (more delicate) and I was creating smaller blocks.

The latest addition is less refined. Basically, pre-mixed DIY repair plaster (the grey and white are different products, simply because they're what I had to hand). This adds the soil layer to the rocks, etc, which as a next step will be sprinkled with sand.

Thanks all. I have a lot of time on my hands at the moment as I'm waylaid from my main hobby.  Busy sculpting roof tiles today. And creating the fittings for removable front gates.

Fabulous! :-* :-*

Worth putting a divider for stalls in the stables and somewhere to hang horse tack?

Yes, something that speaks to purpose would help tell the story. I'd ruled out stalls as I need to be able to get based minis in there but I've definitely been on the lookout for something to hold hay. Tack is also a very good idea that I'd probably have to sculpt separately then stick to the wall. Deffo be adding something like that to the list. Thanks
