Farm House Customs

I took a few pics of my farmhouse for you guys.
I put hardwood floors in. I haven't finished the interior yet.

I copied the rafters from the 21C farmhouse.

I made the shingles from popcycle sticks. One popcycle stick makes 4 shingles.

Each door has two small hinges.

I made this one to be a background prop.

The materials I used for these are: Foamboard, wooden dowells, popcycle sticks, skinny sticks, glue, hot-glue, cardboard (for a base), hinges, and paint.

Very nice! The use of the wood and foamboard give it an authentic look!

Million dollar question:
Would you consider making smaller versions to sell?

Have you tried making anything with a stone exterior, like a ruined church or stone buiding (I saw a prototype in the new database Grunt made for us).

Razor, actually the plaster molds I made last Fall are supposed to be for a stone building. I just need to carve the lines in the plaster. It'll be stone or brick.
I could make 1/32 scale buildings out of foamboard and sticks. I don't know how detailed they would be.

WOW That is Superb & certainly captures the style of housing seen during WWII in Europe.

Top marks mate

Something like this has so much potential on the dio scene & methinks I should make one.

Would you be interested in doing a Step by Step of a HOW TO on this size building mate?

Though like Razor,would you be interested in making some for sale? Maybe that is easy to assemble/disemble too???

In smaller version, I was thinking of a 1 story 1/18 scale buiding or just ruins.
If you have the time to do some custom work for other people, pm or email me and we can work out the details.

I have some custom buildings that someone made for me. They are all out of styrafoam. I will take post some pics of them.

That's pretty cool. Straight forward and simple. I think I'm going to have to try this.
