I lived close to a hanful of those houses back then when i was living in Tours, and I reckon you marvelously captured the depth and the shape of those houses -looks like another of your victories

Hello friens, thanks for your nice words.
Petros: I do texture with a sand paper, If I need rougth texture with a sand paper with big grain if I need ligth texture with a ligth grain.

Jean thanks for your comments , I´m inspired for this model in a photo taken at Tours in a Holydays travel a lot of years ago

Claude, this is a test only, I need know if cork is good for this chess scheme, I´m planing make a medieval section street with 3 houses for my guys

Krisha: yes I want show more when I have the photos in the future
