Hello All, I posted gallery of painted Kings Road figures on our Face Book page. I have Identified all the painters but one. If you have painted any of our figures please send me photos so I can put them in the Gallery...

So todays progress. Got the first piece of wattle cast and cut in to smaller pieces to use in parts of the building. Put fist layer of plaster in between the timbers. I will be smoothing this out more in the morning.

I am going to cast that section of wattle and use it for small areas in need of repair. I am not going to do that for the whole building. I am not that crazy.

This is an article form the curator of ship models at the Naval Sea Systems Command. It explains the problem of led rot that they have to deal with on older ship models. It is long but if you have figures of a smiler vintage then this could be a problem that you will have to deal with. It is...

I have a small 9 inch table top band saw, and miniature table saw. That is why I am only sawing small branches, and it is a lot of work. Like I said there is basswood in this model. It is a huge amount of work to do it this way. I am really liking the knots and flaws that are just nonexistent...

There is basswood sprinkled in this building as well. ;-) I need to do the infill betweens the timbers now. The use of found wood was an experiment and one that I am actually enjoying. I found a nice sized long thin branch that had fallen off a neighbors camphor tree on my walk to work. This...

I think the half timbered buildings that seem to have low windows may have been modified during the buildings lifetime. Because I want this building to be able to double as an inn or pub I added the lager window. This seem to have been something they did for large common rooms such as guild...
