Hacienda scratchbuld (purty good)
« on: May 10, 2023, 03:59:33 PM »
Started with one building, added on not knowing* where it goes.   Walls, and a main house, probably. (Right?  What do you think?)

In progress..


* turns out, I was unconciesly copying a King and Coutry 55mm playset building

That looks wonderful. I love the weathering and the exposed adobe brick.

Fantastic stuff. In my opinion mexican buildings are one of the most challenging things to build, you made it.

My grandfather actually saw Pancho Villa as he rode through the Lomas  west of DF.   He was on the third story balcony, with a shotgun, (abeautiful and priceless Winchester made by the Westons, which I still  have)
age 7, but Pancho and his men rode through waving.

Lovely buildings! I love the way you built it to look like it evolved over time!

Very nicely done! Excellent bit of modelling.

Clearly fallen on hard times since Tony Wilson opened the joint back in the '80s.

Nice work.  Most importantly it looks useful.  Nothing hurts me more than terrain which - while attractive - doesn't have much 'playability' for games.

Thank you  :)
