Another huge step forward today--and on two fronts. First, Kathryn and Alan from Templewood Miniatures printed leaded glass windows, from a design drawn by daughter's fantastic friend. The packed arrived today and they are fantastic beyond words. I'm really excited about these. They are a big touch that I hadn't expected to be able to add. Now, all I have to do is figure out how to get it onto the already-closed-up House 1. I have some ideas, and am otherwise still mulling that one.
The sunrooms went together well today, even if getting the "glass" attached to the really fragile ribs is a fraught process.
This method, with doing them panel by panel, worked pretty well.
I used a bit of a Grandt Line 1/12 scale fence for the hood ornament, and am pleased with how it turned out. It's a little larger scale than the real thing, that has 11 spikes, but it looks good and given the options, seems pretty darn good to me. I'd bought three different styles of fencing and was pretty pleased with how this one turned out.
All in all, another satisfying day of progress!
