Schleswig-Holstein farm house

OK, so after two years I've finally given in to having a section of the FORUM specifically set up to discuss painting techniques, display examples, show your latest projects and chat about this vital part of the hobby. Manufacturers please feel free to post up your sculpts, ask questions about what the gamers are after and generally promote your work.. no charge! Painters, please also feel free to post up your work for comment and critique. I can't promise the unreserved adulation characteristic of some other fora but I would hope you'd get constructive and measured comment!

Schleswig-Holstein farm house

Scratch built from lollypop sticks and foam, rivits in the timber is plastic putty, roof is a bathroom carpet, other parts are cardboard, pretty happy with it but i think i could do the second one alot better, learn alot from the creation and figured out how to do things alot quicker.
