I enjoy reading your thought process involved in these builds. The approach of someone who understands how buildings work makes for interesting reading.

He is, because he's mental.  lol

What's wrong with some cornflake packets and a hot glue gun like us mere mortals use?  :)

Oh, and some coffee stirrers balsa wood  ;)

Thanks again chaps  :)

What's wrong with some cornflake packets and a hot glue gun like us mere mortals use?  :)

Because I'm an artiste deary and you can shove your coffee stirrers up your arse where the sun don't shine  ;D

One question, where's the outhouse? lol

There will be a garderobe on the walls somewhere  :D

:o

How do you cut all that?

And once you've listed your tools...

How do you cut all that?

With a scalpel and a ruler.

Scalpel, ruler and a pen.

Got a fair bit done today and hopefully the photos will show the general idea a little bit clearer.






I'll give the culvert a bit of paint tonight (that's only the texture coat) and try to finish the basic levels. Obviously the walls will have a degree of thickness to them but the 'inside' of the walls will just be a sheet or two of 10mm blue foam clad on either side with the brick work.

cheers

Looking great so far. ;D

Question: is that nice thick looking door made from lolly sticks?

So how much of the interior will include open, playable space?

Not talking to you...

The vast majority hopefully. Most of the interiors will be accessible as well.
