Final Pictures of Scalscenes Low Relief House Backs

[madharry]

Here are the final pictures of a little download kit I started sometime ago and I ran out of suitable card.

The kit costs £4.99 ($6) and I added some cast metal chimney pots (£4). I used five blades in the process of cutting the card.

I scribed the joins on the stone walls to add relief and on some stones I cut them out completely added extra paper to the backs and glued them back into the walls to make them stand a little proud.

Being a download I plan to build two more rows for free............

The Ledbetters have always used card-board to patch up their house, but it never looked this good!!
Great job!....You're teachin' us to try card stock modeling!
Ok, Thom - give him some big pats on the back for showin' us 'stuck in the past' modelers!

The buildings look great, Mike.  You scribed around all the stones?   Seems like a lot of work. How did you do it so the paper didn't show through?

Thanks Tom and Jeff.

Yes I scribed all the stonework. The card is 2mm thick so as long as the paper is well glued down the paper does not lift at all. I'm really pleased with the models. I am building a British show layout based on the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway. The layout will be entitled Midsomer Piddle. The Piddle is a local river in Somerset. The Tolpuddle Martyrs were actually Tolpiddle but the townsfolk changed the name to spare some blushes. All the buildings will be made from card.

Thanks again....

Mike
