Great job Mike, I like structures like this that have yards with walls, you can do a nice display of troops defending the structure. I like the groundwork too; groundwork on pieces like this can make or break them, you nailed it, well done. Would be nice to see a series of these making a small village, keep up the good work..............

This is certainly a real nice piece Mike; in line with all your work. And making it with NAPS makes me smile even more.....:salute::

I think this is your best work so far. Very nice.

Your farmhouse is very nice indeed . Which material did you use ?
I make most of the buildings I use in my dioramas myself and it's always good to learn new techniques from another forum member
The result of your work is great !!!!

George...thank you! I have made others similar to this. This might be my third one. I just sell them on Ebay. I saw a picture of your table at a show...not sure which show...and not sure of the manufacturer...but I would guess Dave from TMT...you were selling a similar structure...it was a really nice piece...that was my inspiration...mine is just a spin-off of that structure...

Guy...
thank you! I'm a huge fan/admirer of your work...you're very detailed...very precise...very good...
I'm jealous of your talent...^&grin
I have followed all of your threads...you're truly an inspiration to me...
I think we basically use the same materials...
I use the sturdy blue or pink foam board..."industrial sheathing" is the technical term...
closed cell foam board that they use for insulation on homes in the US...
I use a hot glue gun...as it literally dries in seconds and is permanent...
I like stucco patch for a covering...it dries much harder than spackling...
I really get a lot of enjoyment in making structures...it's a bonus to the hobby...

Like everything else of yours I have seen on this forum,this is very good.Two questions-how did you do the tiles?And why do your doors have the bracing on the outside?

Tony...thank you...I use the bracing on the exterior of the doors to make them more interesting architecturally...the little bit of extra work makes them stand out a little more....I'm not sure what you mean when you ask how I do the "tiles"...what are the "tiles"?
