A new building for my Wild West campaign, a small hut built and painted in around 4 hours give or take a few mins. I am planning to build a bank next for the outlaws to try and rob.

Is this from the Wicki-wild wild, Wicki-wicki-wild, Wicki-wild,
Wicki-wicki, Wild Wild West ?

Superb modelling work Ian.

What material is it made from ?

It's made from foam card, cardboard and balsa wood.

I thought it looked like Balsa Wood but I wasn't sure, it's a really super job.

It's a great looking piece Ian. What colours did you use for the wood? Very effective whatever it was.

I used Vallejo game colours Khaki for the base drybrush, adding a little ghost grey for a hightlight. I then thinned down the ghost grey and painted a few of the individual planks. When that was dry I thinned some black paint and darkened the bottom and tops of the planks.

Amazing! The next time you build something like this, I'd love to see more step by step pictures, or even a tutorial.
