I like your buildings. Can you let us know where you got them ?

I got them all over. A lot of the local stores, like Hobby Lobby, JoAnn's Fabrics, Big Lots, and other crafty stores carry "fairy garden" or "gnome village" buildings, and figures. They may not be exactly G-scale, but they work fairly well. I wanted a g-scale railroad, my wife wanted a fairy garden. So we compromised. We have a fairy garden railroad. It's just starting to look like something. The best part is that the buildings are usually cheaper and more durable than model railroad buildings, and when on sale, are much cheaper. In that bottom pic, the boot house was a whopping $7.99, and the larger house was $14.99. They're heavy resin models made for outdoors.

Have a look at ‘Creative Mom’ on YouTube. Not sure how her Putty would last outside but I am sure that the mix could be changed with Cement or External Grade Tile Adhesive.

We buy similar buildings at Walmart, usually with solar lighting that makes an attractive display of an evening.
As noted above, much less expensive than "proper" buildings.

That looks like a place where Snugglepot and Cuddlepie could live.
