Timbered House - Stable

[Sangennaru]

well, finally i made the four walls. now tonight and tomorrow i'll work on the interiors and the roofs. I still don't know what to do: monovalve molds for my personal castings or bivalve for production?





with the roof on it, it will look complete, but some more detailing inside is needed!

  another beauty jack!

Go mono for your own purposes. Then discuss a Poduction model with the company, and create a even more fantastic building, for bivalve. The cold logic of someone who hasn't poured in hours into a very nice looking piece.

Cheers
Matt.

Ps I still need t do your trebs, I am at the greenstuff/pinning phase. Can I use a electric normal drill to drill into the resin?

My point is: if i cast mono, i will have to sand the other side, removing any bump and detail. If i go bivalve, i've to sculpt the insides as well. It might be a preferable choice (maybe a monovalve from the bottom, but it requires a lot of silicon), but not for myself!
So... i will now work on the other parts, but before finishing those i have to find a sponsor! ^^"
Now... let's concentrate on the roof! ^_^

Yep, it should do the job! I still have to finish painting mine, it's there looking at me since a year!

Im watching with interest 

good to know! keep looking ^_^

AAAw, I'm so bad, double-posting all the time!
However, this is an update, quite different from the answers of before.

I started the roof, and i need suggestions. The structure is solid and i like it, but... somehow seems a little too chunky for a roof!



Anyway, the basic idea is simple: since bivalve molds are evil, i'd rather prefer to have two mono valve: one of the wooden canvas below the tiles, and one of the tile roof itself, with holes and everything: details, some sights of the interiors, and the opportunity to swap the tiles, saving the canvas below!

the overall look of the canvas is something like this:



again, any suggestion is much appreciated!


EDIT: a better view of the roof:

[snitcythedog]

I think that the roof is a bit chunky too.  Possibly go with thinner more separated slats and support beams.  The rest of the build is magnificent.  Just Like I would expect from you!
Snitchy sends.

I am doing a new roof, but some real life time consuming issues delayed my work. I can make it thinner, why not.

A very nice build indeed 

Considering the amount of work gone into the front elevations it would be a shame to have an undetailed interior

Hi everyone! some time passed and i did some progresses, which i'm not going to show now. I'll just post some updates about the test piece i did at the very beginning, i wanted to see how it will hold the molding stress.
The first cast is in my hands right now, and i'm quite pleased of the result:



See the details: now they are all in the same material, and they look much more homogeneous.



Sadly, the master is now completely broken. It's not a problem, since the first cast might work as master, but it's something you must have in mind before working with this materials.



Any impression is welcome =)
Cheers

The casting looks great! The detail is superb!

Still, seeing the original broken like this is kinda heartbreaking.

[gamer Mac]

Looks great
And you have made a ruined stable as well, Great work

Thanks Cianty!
After some years of molding, you loose any mercy. It's a tough job, not for faint of heart.

That's an idea...

[moonshado]

That casting looks very, very good, but as cianty said it is sad to see the original in that bust up state. I'm really looking forward to seeing the complete stable all painted up.

Will you make one other wall section that can be combined with this one?

So that 2x this and 2x the other one would make a complete floor of a house?

Actually, this was just a test. It didn't take me that much to sculpt, so i think, after i finish the stable, i could do a building. But in my philosophy i would rather avoid any "doubles" in a model. I know it's slower, but that's my rule of the thumb

For the stable, i'm working slowly because i've quite some real life jobs now, besides, finding someone interested in that model would boost me up! ^^
