Yah, with that many parts it is going to take Jan at least a few hours to zap this one together!!
Maybe kit building should be an Olympic event!!
Not going to be that fast , my name is not Karl , and besides that there are so many windows , and the Dutch handball and Volleybal women are playing half finals tonight.
I finally picked up this kit again, almost finished now.
Assembling the roof bases.

Finished assembling , did some weathering , but I still need to do some touch ups here and there. And I need a way to fix the bay window roof.

Great work Jan.....it looks like a tough one. 8)
Looks good Jan, I don't like the way the bay window has big cracks on all the seams. That's how the one in the Tower house was
Thanks Gregory and Andy

Yep , I'm going to try to fix it , but most likely I will end up having the bay window facing the backdrop , which is a shame because the bay window should be one of the features in the kit.
I think that's one of your best Jan. Nice Work!
Thanks John
