And the shed is done :)

Lovely bit of kit from Warbases.co.uk., the Groundsman's Hut WW2-GMH. Works for a many period, as a hut, a shed, a tiny dwelling, new or ruined and anything in between.

Yep; that works beautifully 8)

What I really like about your buildings is the way you keep the interiors sparse to bare, but there's still a hint of atmosphere. Like the vines growing in, accentuated by the mossy green colour in the corner :)
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Cool!  The vine and the mildew look great.

Great looking little house, I especially like the windows.

Thanks a bunch :) I prefer to keep the insides empty to have more room to do things with them later, like slot in stuff. Eventually. Some day. If ever.

Had some spare time and did more work on the Radio Bunker. Still need to do the inside, base, radio tower and final detailing, but this looks the part nicely sofar.

What a gorgeous little shed! :-* :-*.
Em dezembro de '81
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

After a trip to IKEA with one of my daughters I nabbed a small cardboard tube and changed it into a Russian well that evening. Tonight we had our weekly online painting session and I got it 3/4 of the way. Final weathering, detailing and basing to be done....tomorrow....questionmark?

Love this, I love it when a project springs out of nowhere when you find the perfect gubbin!

Thx! And now I've even finished it, been a bit busy for a competition that is absorbing all of my hours like sponge...but more on that soon.

This is perfectly looking as one would expect such a thing to look like - excellent work! I'm sure it will make a cosy place for a few minutes of recreation for stressed wargaming miniatures during a fight. This may therefore be a proper rally point!
