Construction of Sarissa Precision 28mm Chateau

Being dangerously close to the two-year mark since we last posted a construction project, we tried our hands on a Chateau by Sarissa Precision. Sarissa Precision produces a range a MDF buildings in 15mm, 20mm, and 28mm scale that can be used for wargaming and dioramas. We made the 28mm version, which came with laser-cut cardboard roof tiles.

Included in the kit are laser-cut cardboard roof tiles and window shutters.
This kit came with 5 A4-size MDF sheets. Here are the floors and support structures.
Here are the walls and window surrounds.
The main building structure ‘snaps’ together – no glue is necessary. If you are using it for wargaming and want to keep the roof and each floor separated, you might want to loosen the inter-locking parts. Otherwise it is very hard to get it apart again once snapped together.
The window and door surrounds were glued on with superglue.
The roof tiles were attached using masking tape to see how they fitted before gluing on permanently.
Here is the entire building assembled.
The building was covered with a layer of PVA glue to stop it soaking up too much paint. A wood filler was used to add texture and cover up any gaps.
We hand-brushed the entire building with Army Painter acrylic paint and added stone scatters.
