After a break of one week (Scouts Camp), I'm back with a new building.
ZVEZDA " Thatched Country House "
In fact, I've tried to build this "puzzle kit" from A to Z but I was not able to finish it:
the roof is an incredible multi-parts model !! The main parts of the roof were not glued at the good size and I couldn't assemble the whole roof....
Even the walls are "multi-parts" !! You must cut the holes for the doors and the windows, cut and glue all the wooden parts , the only thing that I've found fun because it allows me to "customize" the house !
 |
| you can see the different parts of the walls... |
 |
| ready to paint (ouf!) |
Making a new roof !!!
(I don't have pictures of the step-by-step, sorry... I've used cardboard and tree foliage)
And here is "my" house :
 |
| A perfect house for hobbits, no ? |
.... next time: a conversion of a cheap (and awful!) laser cut model !!
very well done!
RépondreSupprimerThanks my friend !
SupprimerI like that. Very nice work Sam!
RépondreSupprimerThanks Rodger !
SupprimerVery nice job. You worked through the difficult stages of building this model, and produced a perfect house for hobbits, Sam.
RépondreSupprimerThanks Master Jay-Di !
SupprimerI've done my best !
You did well there Sam, I would have gone all Kansas on it!
RépondreSupprimerThanks Francis !
SupprimerI would like to have such a house ...
A wonderful idea, I love it Sam.
RépondreSupprimerNice job on an odd model I've never seen before. I look forward to seeing what you do with the laser cut one.
RépondreSupprimerThanks Sean !
SupprimerI don't understand why they do this puzzle !
even for the casting, I'm not sure that's necessary !
Tu ne fais pas de la pub à Zvezda, mais le rendu final est très bon. Excellente idée d'utiliser des décors 1/72° pour les Hobbits.
RépondreSupprimer... oui mais Zvezda ne me l'a pas donné non plus, alors je suis libre d'écrire ce que je pense!
SupprimerDu 1/72 pour des hobbits, c'est cohérent: ils mesurent moins de 20mm !
OMG the roof is so amazing with all the moss!
RépondreSupprimer'Zvezda' means 'star' in Serbian :)
Thanks for the visit in the Hobbit-Home!
SupprimerZveZda-PuZZle, DeZZZZ !
I hope that it's easier to build a house in Serbia ...
Great conversion and painting Pascal! The new roof looks excellent. Your pictures inspires me to build such a house from scratch by myself.

Thanks Bruno !
SupprimerI think that it's not so difficult to scratch-build such a house !
Sam
RépondreSupprimerVery nice adaptation here, I especially liked the sod roof.
Jan
Thanks Jan !
SupprimerYou covered it with tree folliage? Then you made an expencive roof!
RépondreSupprimerBut it gives a great result!
Greetings

I`m a bit late seeing this one Sam Wise,but I love this convertion. My advice ,Save your money these kits cost, and just scratch build your own from this and that. This makes it very cost effective to have a Hobbit`s Hobby,and very Wise. BB
