Dr De'Ath,

That is the best roof fur I have seen in a long long while :o

Is it one piece and combed back / upwards while wet or did you use separate strips to create the layered effect  ???

It's one piece.  I wet it with thinned pva and then starting from the top, separated the layers using an old paintbrush to make them stand up.  I trimmed them slightly with scissors before flattening them back on to the roof.  Not too easy to explain with words, I'll take some photos of the process later today when I make another roof.

Photos of my recent efforts are at www.littleleadmen.com and https://beaverlickfalls.blogspot.com

Nice work, mate.
They look cracking and would pass for a much larger scale.

Sorry if I've missed this, but what rules are you using for this project?

As requested:

Barn and terrain board finished - just need to build the hall to go atop the stone foundation.  Both buildings will be removable so I can use the base for other things
