That aint half bad, mate.
 

You should show them architectural modeller blokes how to make things properly.

Wonderful!

Looks like you are using cut up plastic tubing for the ridge tiles. Just a tip for future ref. I've found that you can do the same thing using cut up plastic drinking straws. Just bond a couple together to get the right thickness. They are easier to cut and work, as a slice down the middle with a craft knife gives you the basic tile shape and they are a damn sight cheaper than using Evergreen plastic modelling parts.

Awesome!

How are you planning on hiding the seam where the roof joins?

[Sascha Herm]

That's just amazing  Very inspiring. Thank you for sharing

None of this is square so I'd get laughed out of the workshop

I tried drinking straws many years ago and really wasn't happy with them for various reasons. I don't mind paying extra for quality materials for a quality end  product

Just a bit of runny filler, not too much though.

I have not found anything 'square' in a real house yet, so I reckon this must be more realistic.
 

[OSHIROmodels]

Not quite 

Nearly done, will be finished tomorrow evening.

Coming along nicely, sir.
I can almost feel the warmth of the sun beating down on those tiles.

Nah, I had just burnt the toast, mate.

Most excellent work! I just came home from vacation in the mediterranian, and this catapults me Right back. Really outstanding.

Handsome properties, Signor.

What else is planned to go with this, or is it a stand alone piece?
