Almost at the conclusions of a project I started back in 2018.
At times I felt I'd taken on too much at others I added more aspects to it.Having planned and started work on the buildings I then saw work by others, so I decided to make dioramas of the house rather than just paint them and place them on the cloth.
All the building bar a scratch built pigsty are from Leven. All of the Scenic barrels & crates, sacks, carts, horses, humans and dogs are from Perfect Six Miniatures as are most of the walls gates and fences with the exception of two types from Leven. The trees and large bushes are from K & M Trees. If you can see any long nettles/tallish plant they are from Boon Town Metals who do an excellent range of plants to enhance your 6mm-28mm projects. The vegetable plots are from Time Cast 'N' scale.
The fence posts are cocktail sticks, the horse posts to tie them up to are pins; and the hedges, flocked flat green scourers.
'The Manor' is the largest though not busiest of the the buildings I have done, which I plan to spread across the gaming table. These walls are from Leven too.

Windy Miller's home |
As ever with an eye to transportation I have planned ahead and made sure all the bases fitted inside the three trays from Commission Figurines which fit inside my Really useful box see this article for details; My Storage Solution.
 |
Bottom Tray 50mm deep |
 |
Middle tray 50mm deep. The middle part of the windmill is in the third tray. |
 |
| Top Tray 40mm, Some of the models are 2-3 mm higher than the 40mm, but there is a little squeeze room in the lid that I often use.. |
If you wish to see all of the models here is a link to a file with all the building codes and details of suppliers.
