Sudan Village pt1


just painting this one
The Sudan village project has moved on over the last few weeks. I have been working on eleven buildings that come from kits or are already made. Four of the buildings are finished resin, 3 flat packed resin kits and 4 laser cut models.

I will also be making a number of scratch built houses so I need to blend all these model styles into a common theme. I am therefore plastering all the kits as well as adding extra details. Hopefully, that will make them all fit together nicely. Here are a couple of stages shown on the gatehouse-
plastered and base coat of yellow ochre

finished

The other buildings have been added to where necessary and now all eleven are well advanced- here are some photos. I must admit, I thought I had taken more.

It won't be long before these first 11 are done so I can then start on the scratch built pieces including a mosque.
I am pleased with how the different styles are blending together so the finished town will look good.

  2. Hi David, very inspiring indeed! I'm thinking to do a Indian Mutiny board, some scratch,etc, but some allready made, would accelerate a bit the project. If i'm permited to ask, from wich manufacturers are those laser cut and resin buildings from?
    Many thanks!
