Thank you Juan, I will do it :beer:
This is lovely, wrong scale though :sad: but a superb job of painting, especially the tiles on the roof.:thumbsup:
This building is a sample that the designer sent me as the first proof before printing the whole lot. As you say, the scales are not correct, specifically, the tiles are excessively large. He is already working to make the tiles smaller, although they will not be real scale because otherwise they could not be painted, tiles will be big enoug to be painted confortably but trying to keep an armonious aparence.
But this firs building has allowed me to train my sculpting skills, that way I now know my limitations and I can offer a better product.
Sorry Julian, I did not mean the building was wrong but that Sails of Glory is 1/1000 scale and your building is for Black Seas 1/700 scale. I only have SoG ships, that was why I made the comment about wrong scale.
To be honest I was looking at the way you have painted the tiles so they are different shades of ochre and thought that looked superb, I never noticed the size of them, although now you mention it I see what you mean.
Looking forward to seeing the rest of the buildings if they are as good as this one they will all be lovely.
Cheers
Ah ok, now understand, I have been an incorrect interpretation of the message :thumbsup:
Months ago I did a batch of buildings for 1/1200 or 1/1000 scale but I had to sculpt the tiles with putty and now for the same buildings for scale 1/700 I dont want to repeat that exaustive work.
Arr! My flame markers are plastic Airborne, I just overpaint a grey smoke wash on them.
The semi transparent orange and red plastic sheet makes very good fire markers too. When photographed with flash it really adds depth to the flames.
