Adobe, adobe, adobe....Peasant jacales!
« on: 09 December 2009, 02:41:49 PM »
Here are some peasant jacales/huts to populate the outlying areas of San Antonio De Bejar.

A mixture of adobe, thatch and timber. All made from the usual foamcore, Polyfilla render, balsa doors, kebab skewers, hebe bush tree and teddy bear fur.

Boot Hill Miniatures Texians painted by Bugsda advance on the town .

Rubbish! ;D

No, in fact they are very nice and it is good to see some different construction methods to adobe. I like a bit of variety (unless it involves the Paladium or Bruce Forsyth)

Another great piece for your town, Malamute. Now on to the Govner's palace, or did you finish it already?

Yep thats the plan, to make the palace over the Christmas holidays. BUt I really enjoyed making the log jacale, so I might make a couple more of the timber/thatch ones.

The buildings look great. I like your method. The figures look nicely painted as well.
