Some texture was created on the roof tiles using mr.surfacer and a sponge

Looks really great. What are the roofing shingles made out of?

Ngo Anh- They're made from styrofoam and i then used cork to replicate the stones used on most norman houses.

Sal- The shingles/tiles are made from thin plastic sheets from evergreen cut to size with sizzors
