Old Fools Day of April 1st saw me set out along a brand new course.
Carrying the plans in my head I never really know how things will slip into place.

And so it began,
This place for 20mm to 28mm figures.

Like a charm each shape fell out upon the paper card.
They would oddly go together like a complex dream where three buildings merged greatly into one.

The first line was marked out and soon it was followed by many more.

Raising the stonework.



Slipping the roof on.












Undercoated with emulsion.














A dry run above before painting and gluing in place.


The inside is painted.

20mm Men at Arms practice while this old place falls up around them.








As Night Time Falls

A light flickers warminly within.
All the buildings will have grain of wheat lighting powered via a railway transformer.



It needed a double sections of roof.

The roof was soon placed.



A centre walkway needed placing to link both into one for lifting off the entire roof.

The block in the centre is where chimneys will tower and twist their way up.

A slight change is always easy to apply in scratch building like here.


Eventually each building can be viewed on its own or like seen above merged together for a greater looking scene.
There will be other buildings to bring up to scratch.
Meaning the self same level before the entire complex is dressed up in flint and stone.

A French Dragoon sniper.

28mm Dragoon.
Like any old building they can be used in other time periods.

It is called playing the game.

Lots of pleasurable pastime works to amble my thoughts upon so I`ll get back to you later. BB
