Hello friends, this is my last work until now. It represents one of these little churches that you can see in most parts of european countryside.
I do it all in plastic and used electrical wire from an old computer
I hope you like it

Hi Carlos,

Splendid idea with the cables. Overall a beautiful work. Nice roof :-)

With what did you cover the cables? Putty?

Cheers
Claude

Hi Carlos,

Once again you blew me !!
Claude, I think the cables are as they were inside the PC, with their original sheath, but I may be wrong..
carlos, just an idea : why don't you publish a book, like Calvin Tan or Shep Paine and other master (I consider you as a master ), on How to build building for dioramas. from my knowledge, nobody did that (once again I may be wrong..). You could give in the book tips and tricks, step by step, and painting method (if you don't paint, make a co edition with a good painter). I'm sure Concord for example would love to publish this type of book.

Best and congrats again.

Julien

...And as I'm a Intellectual property lawyer, I could give you good advices...

Best,

Claude , Julien

thanks for your nice words ( merci beaucoup pour votre amabilité) the wire can be covered with wall paint or putty. if you use wall paint you must apply it with "pochoir" metod , as you paint stencils ( sorry but my english is a bit limited, may be some colleague can explain better than me about "pochoir" or stencil paint metod) this give a rougth surface. putty not glued well with the cable.

Julien : I´m today working making entire collection of houses. Among future proyect I have one about a house from Dinan a beauty that wait is replica at 1/35 :-) these houses will be comercialized, two of them are now in the market and was analized here some weeks ago. ... And yes I hope that one day I have time and skills for write these book, but until this day arives I enjoy sharing with all of us my experiences and is very interesting and pleasant ear opinions and talk about my passion with othrs here :-)

best whises

Hi Carlos,

No puedo esparar mas de ver tu casas en 1/35.
Always a pleasure to admire your work.
Still waiting for the step by step method !

Best,

Julien

Hey Carlos. Your attention to detail always amazes me and this is no different. Love the work around the door and window. Using the electrical wires is ingenious, to say the least.
Actually Julien’s idea about a book is quite an excellent one. Osprey modelling manuals are becoming more and more a correlation between a few modellers. I’m sure there’s always plenty of souls, willing to step up to paint your outstanding work.

As usual Carlos, looks great.
Always good seeing your work, and the simple materials you use for your masterpieces.

Wow Carlos, this has to be close to my favourite of your buildings!
The simple styling is its strongest point, and the cable work really sets it off a treat!
Do you have a photo of the internal/box guttering behind the left parapet wall? Being a plumber, I'd like to know how you have represented it
Cheers

P.S. There is one negative IMHO... It's the render that has chipped off at ground level on the left front.
It doesn't look 'natural' enough? I think it would look better reversed, with the corner showing the chipped wear....

hello friends thanks for your support :-)

Bradley , yoiu have rigth about chipped wall , it´s normal that the corner are most damaged that the rest of the wall, but sometimes stucco made strange thing. I have seen this in a wall near my home in a condemned house.
about your question about the guttery I´m sorry but I´m not more photos now. but guttering in the real building style is a channel of pieces of "U" section that runs long the wall every piece is around 40 cm long and in the most part is under the last line of roof.
ope that I this helps :-)
Carlos

Lovely work Carlos. There's some truly inspiring work and ideas to be found here.
