I guess in the end of the day creating goofy or whimsical things is my true passion,
they can make people smile and I think this something awesome! ๐Ÿ˜

He and his 3 brothers arrived with broken off legs, that was kind off the reason I decide to mess around with him ๐Ÿ˜‚

But not kidding I have a love hate relationship with 3d printed resin stuff... I ALWAYS manage to break it, it is even worse than antennas on planes (that I break too)

Thanks, Paul! ๐Ÿ˜€
Can't wait to finally put all the pieces on the base and see how it looks but it needs to dry first...

He is waiting to move into the toilet.
After I broke one of his legs off (again) I put him in a saver spot ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜‚

I also tried out new static Gras got 2mm now and another 4mm, that one was a letdown though

And painted! Getting it from Mahagoni primer back to a saturated is not that easy.
But I am fairly happy with the green shade and I did not even do test pieces this time xP

The ground will lighten up when dried so it remains to see how it looks but I think I will go for a light sandy path instead of the dark ground I made last time โ€ฆ

I did not paint the roof ๐Ÿ˜”
But I did plant some grass and painted it! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Tried to make it more vivid this time, maybe could have gone even further but definitely more saturated than the previous ones!
Ground is still wet and probably needs second pass tomorrow.

I can never say no to scale model vegetation and this might actually fit pretty nicely, I also got it very cheap because itโ€™s second hand but obviously not used

Went to the hobby store after breakfast to get some paints and then spend the whole day making roof test pieces ๐Ÿ˜…
I think it is slowly going in the right direction.
I also found a cool tree/bush in the second hand box and got it very cheap ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Ohhhh damn... I just found my my old Comics, that I made for a newspaper childrens page years ago.
There are 156 comics in this folder and I have zero memory of most of them... but, and that's the biggest suprise, I find them actually funny! ๐Ÿคฃ

Since I now know it is not an metal but an asbestos roof, I think a rough corroded surface fits a lot nicer.
Set the asbestos fibers free! :D

I decided to apply a nasty thick layer of Tamiya surface primer with a sponge. To give the roof a bumpy uneven texture.
I guess very similar to what armor modelers do ๐Ÿ˜

Iโ€˜m pleased with the look so far now I need to find some fitting shades. Seams like a good reason to visit my hobby shop ๐Ÿ˜

Went to inspekt the my game house again to compare it with real live pictures.
Moss and lichen are present but it has a saddening lack of bird poop :P

Sooo I did more research for painting the roof because the roofs in game are never rusty and as one would expect from metal and turns out:
Itโ€™s asbestos cement sheets! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Now that I think about it, why was I expecting anything different than asbestos! ๐Ÿ˜‚
