A few years ago, I did this:

And documented it here:

In the course of unpacking my stuff, I came across a couple more of these kits that I had bought at the same time. I've decided to go ahead and make some more scenery/terrain and tie it all together as a wilderness/frontier settlement. Most of the buildings will be made using this kit, but they're not all going to be the same. I've got a few ideas I came up with as well as some inspiration I found on the internet that I will put my interpretation on.

 

In my head, this little settlement is way out on the very fringes of civilization; building materials would be wood (trees) and stone. I want it to look like a little village carved out the surrounding forest. I have some nicer buildings in my collection, but I'll use them for a different project. This is going to be simple, cheap and cheerful, beer and pretzels gaming terrain. I think it'll be fun to build and add details to. I'm (probably) not going to revisit this guy other than to add a little more vegetation, but the ones I build from here on out I want to try to add a little more detail to them.

You're actually the source of my inspiration; I saw your thread over on LAF and thought it looked like a fun project. I hope you don't mind me borrowing your ideas.::):

I'd originally gotten it from someone on TMP who made several for a project...I keep wanting to grab more of the kits, but end up distracted by things and the partially completed ones I started on from pieces of what I'd had...mainly the barns and cellars for it.

 

They feel so much like the old lincoln logs, save a more permanent thing
