that looks amazing -even more so when you consider what it is made from. I have been using the same thing to make some models, but nothing has come out looking like that.
I might have to try a bit harder now  |

How did you do the windows and frames? They look very nice.

Windows
The windows were made on pieces of thin card (which are about 5mm bigger all round than the window opening on the building). I marked the actual size of the opening and onto this glued matchsticks which were cut to size to form the window frames. When the frames were set I coated the windows and frames in PVA and then painted the windows in a pale grey followed by a thin wash of light blue. Once they were dry, I inserted the widows from the inside of the building using the 5mm overlap to glue the windows in place. The frames were then painted in flat blrown and highlighted in a paler brown.
I still haven't put the fron windows in yet!.....sidetracked by figure painting!.... When I do get around to it I'll post some pics on the blog.  |
