Incredible!  The attention to detail is staggering.  Did you put it together from a building plan?

Please do!  I love them!  Are you building from plywood?  On top of looking great they must be near gamer proof :D .

thx gun bunny & horridperson :)

basically idea is to make various building archetypes for my board (see earlier in this thread) that are (to my eyes) visually interesting and playable, inside and out (more planned...)

primary materials
plywood (~ 1/4", 7/32", 5 mm)
popsicle sticks (have to eat a lot of popsicles; also available at craft store)
stirrer stickers
thin wood squares and rectangles for tiles, cut and sanded to shape
wire rod (for occasional pinning)
patience (!)

primary tools
square
utility knife
metal ruler
sandpaper block
file
solder iron (to burn wall brickwork)
wood glue
clamps
table saw
mitre saw
drill

:)

Wow, very cool to see your building plans (and to see the somewhat finished building)

A minor tip: brick is seldom uniform, by using washes and/or paint to differentiate the brickwork, you will get a more vivid building.
