Yup…sounds like hard work though!


Anyway quick update.   All the gable ends are done, door handles added and now I will plank out the balance of the first house.   I’m tempted to finish the first build so I can adjust the others as necessary…..we shall see.

Ok….trying to work up one to completion.   Nearly there.  The fur needs to dry on before I slick it down, trim and add roof sticks.  I may also add shutters yet.







However, you can see the look I’m going for I think.  I added a little wood-store to this one, and will do similar to a few others.   The timber took ages…..annoyingly I doubt I have patience to batch this lot….so I am looking do do in batch of fours.    One large (this one) and three small to a batch.

Tempting…..but.

So this is the final build.   Hoping the painted model will look ok.

Nice work on the Hairy House!

It's a Hairyhausen production. Chap is using stop motion cinematography.

In all seriousness, very nice work. Can't wait to see how these come out when painted.

I wish….

Well actually, with the promise of a game or two teaching someone CoC, I have a little impetus  to finish off the Russians.   The platoon (in the box) is half way there, and I just finished off a few Bad Squiddo female tankers to man the KV1/2 and the T 34.  The tanks were painted by Jamie along with a few others for me.  I will put up action shots of them all when I get the platoon and a few supports done…..

Looking good.  Nice idea of using the female tankers.  Probably better shots than the men.

Probably more aggressive for sure! 

In all seriousness, so long as you don’t paint them with lipstick and keep them as grimy as the men, they are good minis.

I have a few holes in my CoC support options that I have filled with Squido women..like the ATR team and a second Maxim team…..

Agreed, I mixed some in with my Eureka force and they mix well. I did limit myself to snipers though.
