Those buildings look really good.

Nice pig sty and pen.

I love bacon.  Mmmm....

Thx guys.

I know I have slowed down a lot, but decided to grab some low fruit and finish stuff that I had decided was too big for this project. But after just putting it into my 15mm Nam scenery I see it fits perfectly, so jay, progress!



Kept the basing to a minimum so they will not stand out too much in the jungle or inside a temple complex. Just think the monks have been chased off recently and they did not have time to sweep the leaves etc.

The previously finished broken ones are a bit more abundant and still have my old style of leaves (which I have since abandoned)



And to remind you of the horror that was the original at 1 euro a pop in the most garish colours imaginable. These days they cost 1,50 euros...bloody inflation.



They will fit in fine with my Pulp collection as well, so jay

Well done!  You did nice job turning those souvenirs into stone statues.  They surely look good!

Good to see your update on the thread. I agree with Jim and like the Buddhas a lot.

Those look great! I think you've achieved a very nice stony texture with the different drybrushes! I'm also looking for smth suitable for 15mm, don't hesitate to post a image of them with some 15mm buildings and figures!

Those terrain pieces look excellent - i agree the stone work is really effective 

[Gunbird]

Thank you kindly!

But I don't drybrush anymore, all of it is done with sponging The effect is better and more controllable (for me) than a drybrush i feel. .

I really want to get cracking on a few figures first before I take a group shot so you can see how it works together. Just, with the attention span of a squirrel on crack....well...
