No problem, presuming this is modelling work.  Papier mâché is the ideal material for this and the picture on your blog shows that you have made a very good start.  Just browse through the topics in the forum to find bits that are relevant.  Then come back to this thread to ask specific questions.

Oh and yes this is modelling work. I am building this at 1:56 scale for use with 28mm scale fantasy miniatures.

Here is a previous attempt, but this was not papier-mache, just made out of cardboard, matchsticks and twigs

The Love Shack

I wanted to try papier-mache for this new one because it is a mud-brick dwelling in the ancient Near East, so I wanted a slightly irregular shape and build for it, like a mud-brick dwelling that has been built in a rough-and-ready manner

For texturing, try making a small amount of pulp from toilet paper and paste, keeping it no moister than necessary for manipulation.  A little bit of ground chalk mixed in will help with smoothness.

A fine sand either mixed in with the final paint, or sprinkled on top should make a "life-like" finish texture.  But try first on a scrap of paper to make sure.
