Cheers Kieran, very kind There seems to be a lot of trial and error, I’ve been trying to get the stone right for ages but I think I have finally mastered it. I’ve recently got into the older stuff and hoping to aim my collection more that way. I must say, the quality of the other dioramas on here is stunning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s good we can all share ideas and see how other people have done it. The stone is plaster, soil and glue with layers of washes ontop of plastic sheeting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret90 Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 Inside roof one side done... I’m hoping to make a lift off one the other side so I can get into it, something I haven’t attempted before. The only wall left is the rear one which needs painting...

Thank you Sam, very kind really appreciate all the feedback I’m getting! I’ve based it on the barns around Hampshire/Wiltshire/Dorset but there seems to be quite a few up the country the same style. I’m trying to redo a lot of my barns to make it look like a much older farm and not as many new buildings as there are a lot of farms round me that haven’t changed much.

I’ve decided to measure out the tile length on this one so hoping that might save me a bit of time as when you put one down that’s slightly too small/big it throws the rest of the slates out above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
