Battle of Turin 1706 - Castle of Lucento - The big farm

 The Castle of Lucento was surrounded by 4 farms. 

I calculated that the entire surface of the Castle (buildings + yard) should be 110 cm X 46 cm.  HEnce I was able to calculate the length of the big farm (that in the blue circle) that has to be 57 cm long.

For this long farm I used a new system of bilding. Instead of paper building I used boxes of tea and then I covered them with paperwall. Much easier, much faster, much more precise.

The Piedmontese farm was/are built usally in bricks ant hence I reproduced them 

Figure 3 - I glued the windows on the walls as well as the decorations on the edges.
