After the two "Scottish Houses", I've painted two Medieval Houses from the same manufacturer (Ebob miniatures ) I've learned that in fact those buildings are manufactured by "Vatican Enterprise" and can be found directly here : Wargamescenics (US).
I can't say if they are better for 1/72 or 25/28mm: I let you make your own opinion ! (look the last photos)
Very pleasant to paint but I've some difficulties with the wood. I'm not satisfied with the usual more-less-brown that I have when I paint wood. I know that it's the wrong colour because it's not the main color in the reality! So I've tried to do a sort of grey-brown wood. More satisfying, but not exactly what I want. Another problem when I paint is that I can't remember exactly all the colors and the steps I've used, so I've some difficulties to reproduce the same method when I'm satisfied with a result...

Sam, you've put some serious aging on the thatched roofs! Great job!
RépondreSupprimerThanks Jay !
Supprimer..... it seems that I've some experience with aging !
SupprimerJ'aime beaucoup! Un joli petit village naît sous nos yeux, en plus de ça on devine (enfin) les fumées se dégageant des toits, elles y sont les cheminées!
RépondreSupprimerBeau travail!
Merci Phil ! je n'ai pas mis de fumée pour l'instant....
Supprimerun petit village nait sous nos yeux, ouaip!
reste à savoir lequel !
They look very nice. I suppose the real test would be how they look alongside buildings made just for 1/72nd like the zvezda medieval house (the one with the insanely complicated Multi part Roof)
RépondreSupprimerThanks Paul ! you're right, so I will take a picture with both houses but I'm pretty sure that they are better with 28mm figures.
SupprimerThey are awesome looking buildings!!
RépondreSupprimerThanks Rodger!
SupprimerFabulous looking buildings Sam and I really love the woodwork colour that you've used.
RépondreSupprimerThanks Michael! I try to do more realistic wood-effect, it's going better but I must work more and find other ways ...
SupprimerGreat work Pascal! I also have a house in scale 1/1 that needs to be painted here ;-)
RépondreSupprimerRegards
Bruno
Thanks Bruno ! I would like to see a house painted by you !
SupprimerI hope that it's one with wood, I would like to see how you paint it.
They look excellent Pascal, great work! I'm sure Old Glory UK sell or did sell theses and the previous Highland buildings??
RépondreSupprimerThanks Ray ! I didn't find them at Old Glory but they could have sold them before.
SupprimerExcellent Sam , belle mise en peinture
RépondreSupprimerA bientôt
Merci Vincent: j'essaie toujours de faire de mieux en mieux.
SupprimerHola Amigo
RépondreSupprimerMe gustan si señor,le as dado buen juego a esas pinturas,tienes un buen toque con ellas.
un saludo
Those are lovely Sam, beautiful work!
RépondreSupprimerThanks Francis!
Supprimeryou did an outstanding job painting them, Sam Wise!
RépondreSupprimerThanks Dezz !
SupprimerJ'ai le même problème que toi avec mes mélanges ^^
RépondreSupprimerUn truc que j'ai vu utiliser et qui marche bien : tu fais un mélange partiel et tu continues ton mélange directement sur ce que tu peins. Ça marche vraiment bien sur de grandes zones, peut-être plus difficile juste sur des poutres. Sinon, il te faut "appuyer" le brossage et passer un lavis avant qu'il ne soit complètement sec ;)
En tout cas, tu as de quoi remplir le bourg de Lézeau (Bywater) ou plutôt Stock, plus proche de Bree !
Merci Stéphane ! en faot le problème que j'ai c'est surtout reproduire un même effet plusieurs fois donc je ne pense pas que ta technique m'aiderait beaucoup !
SupprimerPour le reste.... tu es toujours aussi perspicace !
je n'ai pas encore vraiment choisi leur "destinée" mais tu brûles ....
Thanks Andrew!
RépondreSupprimerExcellent work on those houses Pascal! Keep them coming! It will be a nice town!
RépondreSupprimerGreetings
Peter
Thanks Peter !
SupprimerI hope that I will have a town or even a village for some sceneries ...
I like your painting of the houses. Good work and very inspirational!
RépondreSupprimerThanks Ptr ! (what a strange pseudo !)
SupprimerThey are great buildings and you have done a great job painting them. Looking at your pictures, I would say they work in either scale.
RépondreSupprimerCheers,
Pat.
Thanks Pat!
SupprimerI think too that they could be good enough for 1/72 but they are better for 28mm. Mithril, (except the ... Hobbits and the Dwarves!) are 30mm minimum....
But I don't know if 28mm is always 28mm : I'm not a specialist!
wow they look increadible!
RépondreSupprimerThanks Gowan !
Supprimerand no, they are not "incredible", they are "painted" !
Ah!ah!
