Where I am living i have found a desertic area with a little less of 1 Ha. It look like a desert area in Afghanistan like Keyber pass or some area in the Golan Hights during Yom Kippur War. I plan to put there a village of 12 houses, few bunkers and roads. it's a good place to put on scene my figures and vehicle including R/C tank battle.

Here are the pictures of my first barn as part of my village:

The main farm:

A view from the village on the ground:

I can't resist to put some figures in it to have an idea of the realism:

Fantastic work on the buildings and I love your use of the desert terrain :D You must live in So Cal or one of the southwestern states somewhere :wink: Either way, it all makes for a very realistic setup. You need to get some of the 21c "Eastern Warrior" figures as they are tailor-made Taliban action figures and would look spot-on in your diorama!

Great start to a fantastic outside dio. I look forward to your developing vision of a rural village. The scale perception is awesome and as you add detail it will really come into focus. Thanks for sharing and post more pics.
