Wow i've been through all pages of this! Inspirational work. Looks like most of your figures are Perry? I am doing a Kings of war Fantasy Samurai army using war games factory (not the best I know) but a good price. I hope that terrain website you get your stuff from ships to the USA? Quick question do you make all of your own trees? Care do do a tutorial? Again great stuff.

Top class builds

Took a while but the Boshin building commissions are pretty much complete. Just the doors in the storehouses to do (they are being cast) and simple internals, more of which later.

The roofs are removable and I'll take some internal shots later this week.

cheers

Wood clad iron I believe although my wife wasn't 100% sure of the translation as part of the I for board next to the original building had worn away.

Just a question. Many, if not most pictures of Asian pan tiled roofs, I've seen are, like these, in a grey or greyish green colour. Pan tiling in the Med and in South America usually ranges between, biscuit, ochre and terracotta. You only see greys where mildew has accreted (quite common in tropical parts). I presume that Chinese and Japanese pan tiles are just fired clay, like their European counterparts. That being so what gives them their distinctive hue? Surely it's not just the clay used as it must vary a fair bit from place to place.

Inquiring minds must know and this place is as good as any to ask.

OSHIROmodels · « **Reply #313 on:** 11 January 2016, 08:52:15 AM »

Good question

The tiles are fired but then they are glazed as well, especially for better class buildings but the clay when fired is grey in nature as oppose to the terracotta colour in the west.

The colours do vary around the country as they do in Europe and I try to changes the shades on the buildings that I do.

cheers
