1/76- 00 scale Petite Properties.



I really like these kits by Petite Properties. Previously I have made Teacup Cottage. Accurately lazer cut in thin MDF these parts go together extremely well.

The wooden parts have been glued together with PVA and held tightly with clamps.

The finish is left to the purchaser and this building will be faced with Victorian Brickwork from Howards Scenics.

Once the glue has cured the edges have been cleaned up ( to correct my mistakes- not the kits) with emery boards which can be purchased reasonably at Poundland etc..

Once completely dry, the clamps have been removed to reveal a blank canvass to be detailed.

The last picture shows the carcass covered with brick paper which has been  cut and folded around the door and window apertures.

All that remains is for the doors, windows and associated woodwork to be painted and glued in place.
