Another Skid Row shack made literally from scrap bits.

I’m on a bit of a roll creating the hovels for my Skid Row.  This tiny shack was made quite literally from scrap.  I found a 1 inch wide strip of ancient Northeastern board and batten siding in my wood drawer which I trimmed square and then cut into slices. These were patched together to make the walls and I installed some rather rough British made laser cut windows and a door. I primed with rattle can grey then semi dry brushed in ivory acrylic followed with black spirit wash and powders to age it. Some rolled seam roofing treated with acid etchant then painted and topped with a plastic smoke jack and there you are. A couple of enjoyable hours with a result at the end.
The shack in question is on the left, next to Ben Tresize.

Tarted up.
