Creating my first Paper Building for wargaming

Hello everyone. I have always wanted to make my own paper buildings for wargaming, and for many reasons, I have was unable to do so - Until Now. Here is my first attempt a creating a paper based model/terrain piece for a wargaming table.

It is a small brick and plaster house, with a slate roof. It has no windows (at the moment), and was created using Photoshop and Illustrator. It is about 28mm in scale. I have photographed it, with a Flintloque mini for scale comparison.

I can already see some changes I want to make to this model, as well as a plethora of future models, but I think it is "not too shabby" for a first attempt. Comments and feedback are always welcome.

I am influenced by the Dave Graffams Models (www.davesgames.net). The quality of his paper models are top notch.

Enjoy the pictures:

I'm taking a little break from the hobby

I have not had much time for the hobby in last few months. I have spent most of my free time on getting myself into a more health state. I have some ongoing health issues, like I am sure most of us do, but in the last 4-5 weeks, I have just foucused my energy on my health, which means my hobby time has completely diminished. I plan on coming back soon, I am just not sure when. I am thinking it will be a few (5-10)weeks before I return.
