by the way, the red clay you used to put in between the "gefache", is it the air drying clay made by boesner?

I haven't painted any buildings yet, but for larger pieces I also find that the combination of washes and drybrushing helpful. Usually I only wash about 2/3 of the area, and drybrush about 2/3, which leads to about 1/6 with neither, 1/6 with just wash, 1/6 with just drybrush, and 1/2 with both layered on each other.

Thank you for your comments and help. And please excuse the late reply.

So i am on the right track?
" Drybrushing, wash, drybrushing, wash, until satisfied."
Ok, but the last step ("until satisfied"), I still difficult.  
I have seen your house. At first I thought, yes absolutely ok. But after some time it always liked me better. Not spectacular. A simple house. But it is precisely these simplicity, with this painting make it perfect. Damn. Really good! Perhaps a little vegetation...

@floedebolle
yes that is air-drying clay. Creall Do & Dry modeling mass of Havo (NL). Perhaps you know "NANU NANA"? 500g/ € 1.95.

@noisy assassin
My english is not the best. What the translator has given me is also not easy to understand.   But i think i got it! Thank you.

In the house there is little progress. Much plaster-carving. And buiding molds.
I got my first 28mm character painted! The Grandmother from reaper. Other are in work.
Then I was built a marble track for my daughter.
And the planning for the next project. Which up until the end of January must be completed.
Pictures i will show later.

Yes you are on the right track.

Thank you for the compliment. I am no where in your league, but I love to see what you have created next.

I have pictures of my "Wizard Tower" in the "VK" (Russian Social Network) was discovered. There I have some pages viewed. What the guys build (I think with CNC milling machine) is really fantastic. Watch it!

The quantity is almost as impressive as the quality. WONDERFUL CREATIONS one & all!  

Amazing collection of great scenery projects. Thank you for the link.

Yes, it' amazing. Many accessories and stuff too. Fantastic figure modelling artists I have seen.

Hi!
Here is a first update. My new project: TheWitchHouse II
It's not for playing. It should be a gift for my sister.

I LOVE it. It's a WONDERFULLY WHIMSICAL structure. All the interesting angles, & the slant & curve of the roof give it character & a personality all its own. There's so much to inspire & steal. FANTASTIC START!  

What a great little cottage

Many thanks!
I believe that the house is pretty cool.
The painting is almost finished. At the moment I build on the base.
Something completely different...
In the last post were the last photos are identical. Sorry. I have changed it.

That is super cute. I like it a lot.

Fantastic job!

Many thanks!
In the christmas time I have not built.
I now work in the details. I try to get a little spooky atmosphere. Not too much. It is a gift for my sister.

The Witch's House is coming along WONDERFULLY. Painting brings out all the LOVELY details...I love the door & the cap of the tower. FANTASTIC WORK!  

Thanks.
I'm not sure, wich color I use for the cap. At the moment it is grey with silver. I think it's better to make in brighter then the roof. What you mean?

I'm a brighter is better Guy. The cap would look cool in copper, either shiny metallic or verdigris green..I associate metal roofing pieces with copper.  

After a few attempts, the door will look like this.
I have the base started to paint.
Perhaps it will look like this.

SPECTACULAR! That is a WONDERFULLY spooky scene. The colors are BEAUTIFUL AND your attention to detail make it a masterpiece.  OUTSTANDING WORK!  

Coming along very nicely. Colors are great

I agree with Nala, it's a masterpiece!

Many thanks! I shall do my best.
From the idea up to this point are some weeks ago. There is also something to do. Today I started to sow the seeds of grass. And paper with coffee to aging and glued to the right side. This is the last pics for this year. I think that we can now see what it is. A witches cook book for my sister's birthday. Ok, a cookery book with only one recipe.  
I wish you a happy new Year!

That is a BEAUTIFUL  AND INSPIRING creation. WONDERFULLY WELL DONE!  
A JOYOUS NEW YEAR to you as well!  

What a wonderful creation! Your sister is very lucky to receive such a gift!

Happy New Year!
