this is an example of the origin of the buildings and the one I am now working on. This is scanned into Photoshop cleaned up and rescaled Then it is imported into Vcarve where it is further cleaned up and the cut pits for the windows and doors and overall added.
The detailing for the wood planks (and the bricks in the previous ones) is made by using a home made rounded end scrubber which then traces the lines. The cut outs are done with a 1mm windmill.
This model will be a bit more involved than the previous ones as it will have a balcony and exterior stairs. I will also try to make the upper windows as they are sash type and I can't find any in the dolls house range to suit. The same goes for the main door.
This one is going to take some time as it will be interupted by a trip to spain to do the annual spruce up of the apartment ready for the summer invasion of daughters and their partners and off spring
