 :o :owow  I love the way you've made it modular. I was tempted with this a while back and may have to get it now.
   You've done a great job, with a lot of dedicated work done, great job

Cheers

This is amazing - my mansion has completely stalled despite tons of photoshop work and inspiration from Audrey's site!

One question, did you position the doors or take them as supplied from the WWG originals?

Can't wait to see the additional floors and basement - brilliant work

Uti, I'm not sure I understand your question.  The doors were supply with the set.  I cut out the front flat part and just glued them in place.  I made a jig out of card so that all of them line up. Lay down the jig, glue door down in the hole.  It worked very well.

That is very kewl.  Bravo!

I have tried a couple times to make an alien spacecraft interior using the same basic idea... boxes that you can setup any way you want.  I've never been able to "get it right."

The "Shadowcore Prime" model looks like just what I need.

A question for you.  What kind of printer did you use?  I have an ink jet printer and I'm not sure if it can handle this kinda thing.

Also, what kind of glue did you use?

Thanks for any help.

Ray, I printed everything on my Canon inkjet.  It's definitely at least five years old, so that shouldn't be a problem for you.  I used tacky glue to glue everything, though any non-waterbased glue will work as well.  Do not used waterbased, such as white glue, wood glue, etc. as they will warp.

Okay, thanks!

I have a Canon jet ink printer as well.

By a "tacky glue" do you mean something like a "prit stick?"

And, while we are at it... did you varnish after construction?  I think I would want to spray varnish it to keep any moisture from causing the ink to blotch.

It's a grand "Grand Mansion."  Very impressed.
