    Mad Hatter & Alice in Wonderland / scale 1/20(?)

    The tree house was a last minute addition. Used some old N scale windows and made a roof of heavy cardstock and linseed strands - those used to waterproof plumbing joints, old style.

    Mad Hatter & Alice in Wonderland / scale 1/20(?)

    The resin kit of Alice/Mad Hatter is straight forward. I used Vallejo acrylics. The mushrooms and the tree house were made of modelling caly Das Pronto. The shape of the base tries to give a sense of duality, 2what's up and what's under?

    Mad Hatter & Alice in Wonderland / scale 1/20(?)

    The resin kit of Alice/Mad Hatter is straight forward. I used Vallejo acrylics. The mushrooms and the tree house were made of modelling caly Das Pronto.

    VICTORIAN STYLE TRAMWAY HALT SHELTER

    I see. I considered to cut all faces of the walls and use them to "clad" a thick cardstock structure as you show in your rendering Zathros. But wasn't feeling that sure about that method. I think next project of that kind I'll try that approach. Thank you for the time you took thinking about the...

    VICTORIAN STYLE TRAMWAY HALT SHELTER

    I noticed that problem with the bricks, but must admit I messed up with the alignment of the parts too. I'm now trying to disguise the too obvious with watercolour retouches.

    Thank you for the encouragement. I've noticed that being away from paper modelling for long makes me lose some of the little knowledge I acquired previously. I never sensed that with other media.

    VICTORIAN STYLE TRAMWAY HALT SHELTER

    A vey pleasant model from Purple Bob's, a British manufacturer that also sells die cut windows. http://purplebob.co.uk/product-category/7mm-scale-card-model-building-kits/ Construction is straightforward, but I opted to fill in the interior of the walls with heavy cardstock. Made two mistakes...

    To protect models from the dust, I have vitrines. But they are "overbooked". I have to order more, but am with "lack of time" as we say around here....

    Little confusing; the door is stuck to a previous door sill that didn't work right.
