After lots of procrastination I finally bit the bullet and started to scratch build a farm house.

The interior

the exterior

The fire place

The building is made from 2mm framing card. ( I found it surprisingly easy to cut )

Some of the glueing has been done with PVA and some with hot glue for speed.

I probably would not use the hot glue as much again.

Chimney was constructed from card with air dry modelling clay smothered on it and carved with a knife. If i was to do it again, I would apply a thinner layer of clay. It results in a better looking chimney when clay is removed to the card level. Thats alot easier to do when the clay is thin, Also i found it gives slightly more rounded stones, which looks nicer.

future jobs are to finish off the bottom, I plan to fully furnish it and decorate it and potentially light it up. The top will be empty and dark.
