Interesting choice of building kits Job.

I have noticed these before and thought that they would make an interesting basis for various scenes.

I will be curious to see how you transform the Victorian into Edwardian.

Aha! This will be exciting, Northall in Edwardian times. Can't wait to see that, Job.

 

The kits look good so far. It will be interesting to see what you can do with this material. Combined with your card modelling skills I imagine some very realistic textures and shades can be produced.

This will be a total other way of creating a diorama. But I think that my experience with the building of my other diorama's can help me.

Hi Job, I agree with Mikkel and can’t wait to see an Edwardian Northall! As it’s going to be a Christmas scene I’m hoping for a dusting of snow an someone selling chestnuts from a brazier

Never thought of adding snow to the scene. Have to give some thoughts. Have to do some research on the celebration of Christmas in Edwardian times. My mean concern is the painting of the figures.

There isn't much difference between late Victorian and early Edwardian. Also many houses were built by speculating builders, who made there own choice.

Brickwork is stretcher bond and look machine made in the kits. Windows are actually late Victorian, but this can be converted.

Good morning Job,

Very true, as an aside I began life in an architects practice and in later years was a Building Control office hence my interest in all of your enjoyable projects.

I know the Kingsway site. Use them as a reference. Thanks for mention it. I use, for my purpose, the excellent books "the ….. house explained" from Trevor Yorke. And any advice is welcome.
