Your decision to scrap the red boarding was the correct one! Keep your standard of good enough high for you will not be satisfied with less. It is a learning process and we always learn with each project. Love your dry brushing technique. Teach us more!

[@casnovak5532]

I'm so excited about all of these! your barn building vid is my favorite miniature building vid ever, I love these more down-to-earth realistic miniatures, they really capture what I love about miniatures in general. so excited to see more of them!

Офигеть. Очень круто. Особенно нравится, что автор не строит монструозные панорамы, а уделяет максимум внимания деталям.

[@carrie4910]

Bummer about the red stuff not working how you wanted, sucks when you have to undo a bunch of stuff that you just finished. Turned out freaking awesome 🤩

[@jefferyprickett4443]

Fantastic!

[@ady5041]

Amazing work mate,,,,really realistic, love it

[@plixplop]

Good enough isn't good enough! The 2nd attempt at red paint was worth it.

[@frankstoverpurebloodsaltya6441]

WHOLLY MOLLY! um..just start over.. hahahaha 😆

[@AstroLabio1]

Wow!!

[@vivianemilholicicatelli6979]

Sensacional, curiosa para saber o que são os matinhos. Parabéns!

[@blueflavour]

Very much realistic

[@jurajreingraber7724]

Only one thing I miss on this...toilet paper or newspapers...depend on how civilized are the owners of this outhouse ;). But great piece of art 👍

[@johnvgallagher5304]

We always kept an expired phone book in our Catskill outhouse for dire emergency.

[@georgeclements2742]

I thought that the transferred red paint didn't look too bad, but you did exactly the right thing to strip the panels off if you were not satisfied with the effect: it's your model and what you think is what counts. My only other comment is that I feel a low picket fence on two sides would add a little more to the scene. Best wishes.

Magnífica obra de arte 🎨 mi amor 😍 💁‍♀️ 💋 💋 💋 💋 💋

[@mrgabriext2341]

Youre amazing!

[@manuelurdaneta8649]

I like it very, very much. Only one question, why you did not use a final black wash in the old wood?

[@ExcessivelySentimental]

Thank you. I felt the brown wash was enough to get the look I was after without making it too dark

[@herbiehammer4841]

I show your Video my Wife...answer"Not gonna happen"hehe

[@shyamchaudhari2499]

Callect your all models and make smol villege.and uplod. Fantastic 👌

[@deangood8908]

W hat type of glue do you use

[@mikeseba7817]

Congratulations! A masterpiece in miniature! P.S. Only some paper is missing inside :)

[@silveretetu3882]

What glue do you use for thé wood , you like ?

[@ExcessivelySentimental]

I use a quick drying superglue and I love it; it dries quickly and doesn’t dissolve with the various coats of watered-down paint

[@silveretetu3882]

@@ExcessivelySentimental Ok , thanks for you reply 😉

[@tomgdownhill]

Actually was making a replica of the famous Shrek toilet just like this XD

[@huxbricks524]

Does anyone know where to get that wood? :(

[@oakwise2352]

That's balsa or `Basewood`. Hobby stores that do model train supplies should have it. Michael's in the USA will have some. The trick here is the use of the planer to get really thin pieces. I love this person's approach.

[@huxbricks524]

@@oakwise2352 Thanks man! I used to build with cardboard but it doesn't have the same quality and properties as wood :D

[@carrie4910]

Are you using balsa wood? Or something else?

[@ExcessivelySentimental]

Correct, it's balsa wood
