Excellent!

I had the same thought and started working on something similar for my pseudo-roman empire in my fantasy games. Your addition of the tower with the goat pen is inspirational, though!

I must confess that I am inspired by your Saxon village and an illustration osprey

It's gorgeous. If I had the power, I'd make you move to Britain and become King Of Making Things To Be Shown In Museums. And then I'd force you to make terrain for me in your time off!

That's a nice piece! Tells a little story and I love that.

Where did you get the sheep from? I need lots and lots of them!

I'm really impressed by this piece. Details like the tree on the wrecked wall or the attached sheep pen are perfectly fitting my imagination of imperial remnants still in use long after Rome's withdrawal. Very well done, I'd like to copy it. :D

Unfortunately not, no photos of work in progress, as more battery in the camera. but there is not much complicated, I applied the usual techniques, and basic materials: balsa, extruded polystyrene etc ... but if you have specific questions, feel free to ask
