Scratch built 28mm Scale Small Warehouse/Workshop

 I decided I needed another building, this time a small warehouse or workshop for the docks, with sliding front doors & a wrinkly tin roof. 

I started the same way as any other building with foamboard walls & a card roof



I doubled up the roof though with a mounting board inner that fits between the walls & a thinner outer that just sits on top of the walls.
This was so that when the wrinkly tin roof panels are added they sit reasonably flush with the roof




The base is a sheet of plasticard with milliput rolled out and stamped with bricks. The brown bricks are standard grey/yellow milliput with a bit of brown stuff added, i really like the colour & wished i done the same with the forecourt



The building was the 'Rendered' inside & out with a mix of powder filler & PVA to get the right consistency, then rubbed smoothish with fine grit sandpaper (same as the last building!)





The Wrinkly tin is made from beer cans & I used my fancy new Green Stuff World Corrugator tool  (rather than the old block of wood with nails glued on it that i used to use!)



I will carry on with the build in my next post
