Last week I finished what I started the week before namely the roofing of my multi-temporal estate. Since the original roofs looked too modern to me and suffered some damage somehow some new roofs were needed. For this purpose I cut a couple of triangles from foam board. In addition I cut suitable rectangles from thick cardboard. Those parts combined I had some rather gables as base for the roofs.
Then the trickiest and most time consuming work came up: Tilling the roofs. Luckily Martin and Diane from Warbases are producing sheets of pre-cut cardboard roof tiles. Those were an incredible help. No idea how long it had taken to cut all those shingles myself...
Momentarily the last row of shingles is missing because I want to fit in the new chimneys I made from Depron foam. Actually that was much easier than I thought.
Thus I'm finally seeing the finish line with this project and I'm looking forward to get it done soon.
Stefan. That is looking fantastic.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, Carl.
DeleteKeep going my friend, this is looking amazing.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Michael.
DeleteReally really nice job.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, Rodney.
DeleteFantastic roofing work Stefan!
ReplyDeleteThanks to Warbases extremely helpful strips of tiles. :-)
DeleteEvery time you do an update this looks more impressive mate. You should consider building up the front walls to the same height where the railings were using the foam IMHO. Keep it coming!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, Millsy.
DeleteActually I'm pondering myself about what to do with the gaps in the front walls. I tried hedgerows but they didn't look good somehow. Momentarily I think I'll employ Warbases new fencing to create some new reailings.
Stunning job on the roof, very impressive!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Phil.
Deletevery well done Stefan! It certainly looks the part.
ReplyDeleteWegen der Bemalanleitung schreib mir doch mal eine Mail an moiterei1984[at]googlemail[dot]com ... dieAdresse, die du mir hinterlassen hast scheint nicht zu funktionieren. Die Mails kommen immer wieder als unzustellbar zurück.
Danke für das Lob, Nick.
DeleteBei der Email-Adresse habe ich Trottel einen Punkt durch einen Strich ersetzt, glaube ich... :-(
Ich melde mich nachher mal.
Stunning buildings.
