Wonderful stuff, mate.
This is turning it an amazing, HUGE build.
Love the work on the dormers and chimney.

Regarding the roof tiles: Getting some tile sheets from Bibbles at Oshiro may well be the answer.

You could use broken coffee stirrers as shingles. IMHO they look great but take a while.

I agree with this.




I built a roof this size using small card squares and it took for ever.The big mansion in the pic above.
Now I would go for the Oshiro ones as well.

Although i'm sure that Jim's tiles are perfect, i'd add also those casted by myself in the list. Small but detailed, in 12x9 cm sheets.



I used them in my most recent project, it's 15mm, but they work better for 28.

right... I'm back, the novelty of Fallout 3 is being to wane...

the inn for now is taking a sabatical, I need to get some figures done, but before then, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for the Devil?

at the moment, I'm thinking tall, thin, old (Elizabethan?) clothes, but dapper with it... unarmed preferably, or maybe with a thin rapier... head will be swapped out...

talking of heads, along with some lovely wolves from Mojo Minis, I have the basis for my Gabriel Hounds... I see much greenstuffing ahead of me...

and finally, anyone know how big the Redoubt Musketeers range is? I have a suspicion there is a deceptive 40mm range out there and not sure if they are it, I know Redoubt tend to be big, but how big are these chaps?

The Redoubt figures are large, not 40mm, but certainly over 30mm.

a bit rushed, but trying to get back in the swing of things and trying to hit the end of the month...

Some supernatural beasties that have been planned for a while, but I needed the right canine body. Gabriel Hounds (also called Gabble Hounds for the noise they make as they fly across the sky - which was probably just geese) are said to be born by the death of unbaptised children and have the heads of humans. The heads in this case are from the werewolf head sprues from Maxmini, the wolf body is from MiniatureMojo's Scavenge Skirmish Survive range - they have 3 different types available, but I prefered the hunched pose.



Not my best paint jobs, I hate doing fur as it never allows me to blend like I normally do, plus I wasn't happy with the white (definitely need to buy the very intriguing White set from Andrea Color). And they had to be white according to legend, with red ears - I had planned on blending the ears in to the white, but the fur around the heads put paid to that.

If I ever get the chance to do an Akula and get my own mini's made up, these are the first things I'll have made...

and a quick rebase for an old figure that was for a planned Slaine type affair, but will equally do muster for the Folk Horror stuff... a crone for the maiden Angel Blake...

I like the hounds. They're somewhat sinister without being too different from the main figure; you almost have to look twice at them. Very nice work.

I was thinking of a way of describing my feeling of the hounds and Steve has nailed it.

Brilliant, mate!
And very clever.
