Hello to all!

This is a project for another good friend of mine, this is foam that Per Olav showed to me this summer, is fast to work but also very dificult to resolve if you do a big mistake!







Reagrds from the sunny costa brava!

This is a very good piece Xavier. I like all the different materials and levels in the building. Is there a Step by Step anywhere that explains the technique?

Really creative, great lines and structure. I am not a fan of how the right side just 'ends' and there isn't more there. I would prefer to see it go to the edge of the door frame. But that's just my opinion on that side. the rest is really cool.

Hello Scott and Pat, thank you very much for your messages, this material is used for the issolation of houses, "poliestireno" or maybe styrofoam. It's not so expensive but it's a good material and you can do great thinks with some patience.
Here you can see a link from Per Olav who showed it to me, it's a step by step:

Vladimir thanks a lot for your message too, do you have anny pictures of nice small corners from houses, brick or wood will be nice, but also other kind like industrial. I like old building for the 2ww scenario. Anny help will be great.

thanks for viewing!

Hi Xavier,

Nice start!

In my opinion the gutter looks overscale. A smaller diameter would help.

Cheers
Claude

Hello Jeremy and Claude,

thank you bth for your posts.

Claude: yes could be a little bit over scaled but my frined who will paint can decide it to change if he also see it to over scaled. Also it depends wich counties are bigger or smalles, her ein spain they are very small in Poland i have seen it very big (also overscaled in the reality). Anny way thanks for the critic.

this is a very interesting build as the various materials used seem to add to the realism for the scale. i especially like the variety in brick size and shape which adds to the uniqueness of the building. the different surfaces would be a great paint project to bring it all to life. thanks for sharing and for the link. cheers, bd.
