Although the Merchant's House came with a thatch roof and the Town House a tile or slate roof, as both buildings have the same foot print you could swap them around as you please.
I took these shots during WIP to show the interiors. The second floor also lifts out to gain access to the ground floor.
The musketeer shows that the windows are a little low for 28mm, and possibly also 25mm, but perfect for use with 1/72 figures.
For the sake of completing the set as it were, I have ordered two more buildings from Warlord Games. Given that I am still waiting on orders placed in February to arrive from the UK I don't anticipate seeing them too soon...
These buildings are awesome! Great job on finishing them.
ReplyDeleteDitto!
ReplyDeleteI do like these buildings...Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMore, very nicely painted buildings. I really like the slate roof. One is my big bugbears with mdf buildings is the roofs. This one looks so much better for having that 3D effect.
ReplyDeleteYes, if there is one thing that I like to replace on a MDF building it is the roof. As Tony Hardwood says: "I tend to take more care when painting roofs as it is usually the roof that you spend most time looking down on ".
DeleteIs never thought of it like that, but that is a really good point!
DeleteLovely work, and the first thing that came to my mind was how much I liked the daub colouring. Very understated and not the brilliant white I have strayed into on occasion.
ReplyDeleteApparently (I can't recall where I read it) white washed daub was an 18th C. thing. I the middle ages through the renaissance the clay was mixed with straw, dung and sometimes blood, all of which would have added colour. It could quite dark initially then fade over a couple of summers.
DeleteThank you very much for the compliments guys.
ReplyDeleteThose do look nice. Some day I will have enough room to place mine, so I can actually build them.
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job on these. It’ll be a nice addition to your games. 😀
ReplyDeleteThese look amazing! Lovely, subtle use of colour, off to have a look at the range for myself.
ReplyDeleteCongrats mate, you have done a great job on these! I am painting the Merchant's house too right now.
ReplyDeleteBest Regards
I look forward to seeing it!
Delete:O I am agog. Cod these are awesome.
ReplyDeletePity the Covenant forces now on my painting desk will want to burn them.
ooo ... maybe that's the next thing needed?
I also missed getting you my old church for making into ruin.
Really really nice. I've steered clear of MDF buildings for a number of reasons. These could tempt me.
ReplyDeleteReally nice job on these; fine looking structures!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant looking buildings!

Great stuff, our Daub here locally and into basse-Normandie is close to your colour ours gets whiter as you go lower into the Loire as the soil changes.
