        Thanks for the nice posts, folks. :thumb2:

        Apart from some chimblee flashing and a bit more 'last job' weathering, the house is now completed.
        I didn't like the too rustic front doors, so I made some new ones out of plastic card.

              Thanks Rick and Jim.

              After all the designing, cutting and painting, it's good to be finally gluing bits together!

                      I've glued on the intermediate wall sections and fixed plain backs to the buildings...and stuck it all on to the 'Silly' base.
                      The house will abut the gable in the space on the right of the stable block.

                        Ron,
                        An excellent piece of workmanship... Looking forward to more.

                        Look JR, not a flame or singed bit anywhere - see what therapy can do for you.

                          Going well. It’s got the air of La Haye Sainte about it.
