The door and windows frames are made of styrene strips..

I use foam and plastiroc to fill the empty interior walls

A part of wood floor and the door made of plastic cards and profiles

Here's the plan of the ground of the vignette. Sidewalk and cobblestone road

The base of the vignette. A blue foam

A part of 5mm graphite styrodur used to carve.

Here's the result

I had to seperate the sidewalk and the road

A part of 3mm of forex used to get the sidewalk section higher

Here's the result with the house

Here at last, painting and weathering work finished..

The sand and gravels are glued with dedicated mig glue. The dust made from pigments..

I want to give a particular work to the interior.. The door project abandonned.

The weathering job with oils dots, filters...

And the icm german infantry. These figures are very nice ! These are entirely off from the box excepted the hornet head for the left figure..

This is a time i like : priming ! All the volumes appeared and these photos help me to determinate the shadows/lights..

Tamiya spray primer gives good results

The hornet head is soooo well detailed !!

Painting faces is a big challege to me, i'm so impressed by painters bring to life figures !!!

The officier head...

Painting in progress

Really liking your 'eye' and your 'touch' - the cobbles and interior walls look very convincing. Watching as you bring it all to life 🙂

It's a time that make me nervous : painting faces.. A long time ago i've just overpaint with humbrol and a big wash with burnt umber... And the result was.... Awful !!! That's a challenge to me.... I décide to follow the joaquin gazquez technique.... Not yet to the top but i begin to understand "what" "when" and "how" to....

I got a "garage light" in the ceiling of the room (after I saw it in picture 28 of My personal Kingdom and other Hobbies | Album by Springbank (1:1)) around 6000k 6000lumen, basically dailigh.... I love it. and then in my desk I have s simple lamp from ikea with a 6500k 806lumen bulb, for details.
there are a lot more expensive options, but I do not thik they are worth their prices (I got one of them and it is basically never used.....)

Ok !!! 6500k is my lamp too... I bought a "velleman" tube light and i'm satisfied... Not so expensive as the task lamp founded at amazon...
