Barbican Townhouses
In my reading, I've discovered that it was a fairly common practice to build homes up against an outer wall of the city, in effort to save building materials, in that only three walls would need to be built. With that premise in mind, I built these townhouses, attached to the cities outer wall. As well as the wall, I decided to build a Barbican as well, to make a space for more details and a town watch. The buildings themselves are built as townhouses, each one having living space for 2 or 3 different families. I left the walkway on the wall open, so that the watch could still walk the walls. I also modified the design of the wall a bit, without changing it too drastically. The walls and foundations of the building are carved from blue and pink foam. The upper levels of the buildings are made from foamcore. All of the woodwork is balsa. As for details, the cart is from Mega Miniatures, the pumpkin is from Busch, and the coachlamps, jars, and stiens are all silver beads. The barrels are from Lemax. All of the folliage is from Woodland Scenics. Horse poo and mushrooms are made from balls of dried glue. The town watch minis are from GW, the pigs are Gripping Beast, and the townsfolk is from Reaper. Please comment, I read them all and take any suggestions to heart. Cheers!
