LOVELY! Are they scratchbuilt?

They're great. I want to know if they're scratch built as well?

STUNNING! Really like the weathered look of the stables

Clearly above average! Very nice wethering techniques. Could you give us the dirt on the dirt, please?

Thanks guys for comments !
Glad you like them... they're all scratchbuild with balsa wood and some cardboard.
Wood is colored with oil paints (diluted with turpentine) to avoid planks "sculpting" disapppearance : one brown wash followed by a very diluted dark wash. Weathering is done with acrilycs drybrush.
