Water Mill
Scale : 1:160

I've been thinking about starting a folk architecture series for a while now. I chose this water mill to start with. This is the most published model of this author, it was published in the magazine Zenit, ABC, Fifík and the book (I built the version from the book).
I improved the windows on the models, which were just drawn a little more plastic and added a railing on the bridge. I used the horse carriage, bench and millstones from a windmill model by the same author (I'm finishing this mill right now, so it will be the second build in this series). I added grass, water, figures and trees and that's about it...If you play with it a bit, even such an old model can be turned into a pretty nice piece...a few photos:
