Medieval Fortified Village

[PT-2]

Some pictures of the construction site with the (very small) assembly of the windows and bow-windows of the houses in the center.
























And an upgrade of the cloister with the improved well, but also the pediments enriched with a frieze of stones and tiles. The well of the village has also finally received the right rope and crank...

Your village is a journey in time and place. The views down the "alley ways" are particularly engrossing and draw me into a mental stroll down the way. Excellent work and photography. Rich (PT=2)

More fantastic work and attention to detail. Will you be doing cobblestone streets? This is amazing to see all the steps to making these wonderful buildings. I can’t believe that a windmill like that actually worked. Unbelievable!

@TechTrek Yes, the 2 streets will be partially paved as in the 14th, i.e. the whole village will not be covered with cobblestones or stone slabs, but simply the important parts (in the eyes of the inhabitants of the time).

I can’t wait to see the final village.

I didn't have much time this week to move forward on these houses, but the windows are made with doors, chimneys, and some weathering. I'm attacking the roofs!

It is always fun to see your progress in the village. Rich (PT-2)

Very cool, what do you use as the window glass?

 

[Sulaire]

very impressive indeed. There's some fascinating things being built by members on this forum.

It is a very thin plastic paper of protection for very wide bandages . I had put them aside because of their diamond-shaped relief which recalls the shape of glasses used in the Middle Ages.

The weathering is great!

I finally finished this last block of houses!
They were the last ones in the village. I still have one or two walls left to finish the enclosure and then I go to work on the pedestals.

While waiting for some pictures of the block with its roofs full of angles...














A series on all the houses that form the central stop of the village (with the covered passageway that connects them),















Some views of the hall that I never took the time to do on a neutral background,













Some pictures of the mill on a neutral background as well...

Nice to see the village growing and growing.
And beautifull pictures with good lightning for the details by the the stand-alone’s.
Regards, Peter

 

[Uwek]

a wonderful build house - it is somehow your masterpiece with great weathering

 

[pianoforte]

I am thrilled, just looks very beautiful and is lovingly made.

 

[Ekis]

Thank you all!
And this is not the end... I still have a lot of work to finish all this. And then, later on, there might be a continuation of this village.

Are you going to add Villagers?

 

[Ekis]

Not sure about adding miniatures: I'm not a big fan in general. I prefer to focus on the scenery, details and vegetation. That said, it's a first for me, all that can evolve of course!

Which of your buildings is the Tavern?

 

[Ekis]

This one with the sign and the tables!
It's just at the entrance of the village : you can't miss it...

Of course, how could I have missed this? I must have been drinking
