Rustic Russian Residence Pack

This building pack is inspired by some beautiful Russian animations by Soyuzmultfilm' I saw as a young adult. Enthralled by these, I decided to make the sorts of houses these people lived in.

The style is something like an American log cabin, but more decorated, with stoves so large and flat that they were traditionally slept on to keep warm. The bigger ones closer to the center of a village are called izbas. Smaller country houses, often owned by city people, surrounded by gardens, are called dachas. In this context, I made them to be surrounded by fences (also included as templates) and for 11x11 farms to be built in them. I also included a fictional style bunkhouse in a similar theme.

There are eight houses, two of which are made with stone furniture for the Northern Alliance. There's also a granary based on a real one in rural Arkhangelsk Oblast, a Norwegian-style stave church, a small fictional Christian shrine, a small fictional warehouse, and of course the wooden fence, pre-designed dacha enclosures previously mentioned.
