Evening everyone,

Since Monday I’ve started at this project. I’ve been an evening busy with the wall. I still got a long way to go, but you will notice that. I had to fix the wall again after a ‘softly’ approche (spelled correctly?) of my mom (WOMEN!!!) At the first pics I was still busy with the roof. Now that’s also complete. On the front there will come a poster, before the wall, there will be grass and at the port (?) there will come a sandy way. The pole is for electricity (still got to save some money for the aber set)
All comment’s welcome at this stage of building. Now it’s still easy to add or remove stuff.

The general pics:






The roof:
I thought it would be harder to make such a beautiful roof. I’m so happy that made it like it is now. I hope I don’t mess it up with painting. I’ve done this roof with an how to from armorama (had it linked at my cpu) I’ve learned a lot while I made this

The pictures of the roof:



Now I go to bed. I need some sleep after this... Or will I continu to work on this

Looks fantastic.

What did you use to make the wall?

I'm curious about whats "around the corner"...

Hi,

thx for the comments,

Pfc, the figures still need to be painted

Tarok, I've used Polyfila. It's on base of marblepouder and it's normal use is for filling up gaps in walls. I've choose the marblepouder because it's very fine of structure. The wall you see is a thin plate of isolationboard and a few mm Polyfila on it. Easy to carve and easy to use.

I'll keep you guys postes

Here's a little update after my short night. I've started when I woke up to get it done for this evening to set in primer

Hope you'll like it.

It's a very interesting piece of work, and a job well done! I like it very much! For what I've seen, it will need not much to be alive by itself- without the figures I mean. Nice Work! :-)
