Hello everyone...
I have put a couple of simple renders of a small medieval house that I built
a few weeks ago. It is the front half of a two story wattle and daub,
timbered type structure (I can't remember what the type of building is
really called right now). I am pleased with it... :-)
I have been trying to scale my structures down, as I have a tendency to try
to build these huge things that I never finish. I think I have managed to
make something nicely scaled for minifigs.
I was building this with the idea of placing it in a moderately sized
medieval city, where the buildings are built close together.
Here's the link to the folder:

I also decided to put two of them next to each other, just changing the main
color of the building, to get a little variety.

Please, let me know what you think.

| Andy, those are great. A small scale, that would be perfect for a middle village sprawled around a large keep. I really like the use of the 1x2 tile with one stud, for the columns between the windows. -Jason +---...---+ (...) (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.castle)

| Andy, these are great. I've been looking for awhile now for a way to do a large number of buildings with a small number of bricks, and it looks like you've nailed it with these facades. I can just see our hero and his sidekick, striding down the (...) (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.castle)

| (...) For being mere facades, these are great. For something so small, you've put a lot of detail into it, I expecially love the 3D detail, the arch above the door frame, the columns around the windows. Very cool. I can just see a city filled with (...) (23 years ago, 13-Dec-01, to lugnet.castle)

| Sorry for the double post. Rendered Instructions and DAT file now available, if anyone is interested. (URL) sure that I made FAR too many steps, but I figure using BrickShelf, people can just skip to what they want to see anyway. Thanks to Jeff Boen (...)
