Napoleonic commission, Aspern Essling - First base complete

Lovely work Jim
The roof colour is amazing.
Does the masking tape not  damage the walls when you remove it?

Thanks gents 

Colin, it's low-tac stuff I get from Japan but I'm pretty sure you can get it here as well. It's mainly for plastic model kits etc.

cheers

Oh you mean the expensive stuff rather than the cheapo stuff I get from work

[Dr DeAth]

Sublime colours and weathering on the walls and roof there James.

Jolly Nice!

Yup, although it's fairly cheap over there (plastic modelling being a massive hobby).

cheers

Got some more done on building two, all the stone work. A few more details and then I'll be able to paint it. The roof is yet to be designed yet and I might do dormers on it.



cheers

That really is most impressive.
 

Will that be an open archway at the bottom or a massive door?

Open archway and there's nothing wrong with a few pints here and there

You must be an octopus!! All these projects on the go at one time!

Are you using plastic card for the corners? It doesn't look like you've cut separate quoins this time?

[OSHIROmodels]

Cheers mate, I seem to work better doing a little bit here and a little bit there, otherwise I get bored on the same thing.

The material is called Rowmark and it's a cross between styrene and acrylic. Styrene doesn't laser very well and this material is softer than acrylic and so is a good compromise 

cheers
