New foam building project! (1 Viewer)

The bay windows look great Tim. I wouldn't add any more as usually a home may only have 1 or 2 of these. The thatched awnings look great with the brown.

Wot Scott said.

Tim, those bay windows look really good. I agree, especially if they're a bit of a nightmare to make, that a couple is more than enough to add some flavour to the building.

It certainly is a fine looking building Tim, personally I would remove the thatched awnings but keep the flowers boxes and leave them red. If I was going to leave the thatch I would paint the wood part of it brown to match the rest of the building. I can't wait to see the next additions to the building. Great stuff !!

Thanks for the suggestion! I think they look better with the brown above the thatched awning also.
Do you still think I should remove the thatched awnings or has the new color solved the problem???
Maybe a smaller strip of wood above the thatched part?

Hi Tim,

I agree with Scott and Simon. The bay windows add a very nice touch, but I would not add more than two to the building. Also, the brown looks great and I like the thatched awnings. I do not think it is necessary to place a smaller strip of wood above the thatched part.

As usual, your work is exciting to watch. Please keep us informed of your progress!

Warmest personal regards,

Pat

I would leave them Tim, I think they look great, amazing what a change of colour does eh

Well I,m just about done with the building but I,m still tinkering with a few more ideas like adding a chimny maybe more vines or some more broken sections in the plaster with brick showing through ect...??? Still lots of ideas!
Here are a bunch more pictures, sorry I couldn,t decide wich ones to post so I,ll post them all!

WOWSERS !!!! I am glad you posted them Tim. That is a fantastic looking building and certainly will have many uses for a whole manner of different eras. I think a nice brick Chimney would be great also, maybe even two !!! Vines look great as well, these types of building seem to attract their fair share of them (perhaps just fill out what you already have). I like what you have used to depict the leaded windows. All of the little scenic bits just brings everything to life. Great stuff !!

Looks as great seeing what you've done for the third time today Tim after seeing them on both the HB and CTSC forums. Nice seeing the Frontline Wagon making it's appearance.........The Lt.

Every thing Brit said and a few other points I really likt the flower boxes. The idea of the plaster and bricks showing through sounds great.
