Really like the huts. Interested in how you do the roofs.

Nine months after it was presumed dead the thread steps out of the undergrowth ragged and unshaven....  ::)

These Ruga-Ruga have been lurking around my workbench for longer than I care to think.   
I finally finished painting and basing them yesterday.












All together


I have another 14 undercoated, but who knows when they will be completed.  ???

(For those wondering, I have made no further progress on the village.....)

Nine months after it was presumed dead the thread...

Is a project ever really dead?  :)

Nice additions, I must say.  :-*

Personally, I really like these kinds of threads where folks keep adding onto them over time. It makes for a mini album/photo gallery and is fun to go back and see the progress and ogle the minis.
