The Stable - Phillippeville (6)

I'd built and painted a small stable with a walled and fenced area a couple of weeks ago and quite liked how it came out, so set too to make another one for the challenge.

The donkey was from Warbases and was a gift from Victoria

The stable is made out of artists mount board then planked with cut coffee stirrers. The fence posts are matchsticks while the fencing is also split coffee stirrers.

The gate, like that one from the orchard is constructed as per Pats instructions. The roof is mount board painted as tar-paper held down with some planks of wood and a boulder.

The last thing painted today was a couple of wall sections made from small pebbles stuck onto tongue depressors, these are quite an easy build but I think they look quite effective and come in very handy.

These are also part of my first entry in the Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge for this year, if you are not aware of the event I suggest you pop over there.

I hope to get a couple more of these fabricated over the next few weeks.
