Mix some downtime, hard card , tape, and coffee sticks, and you get a nice two story inn with an attached kitchen!

basic construction: card taped together into a box shape. |
![]() |
The basic
outline with a gorkamorka model for scale |
![]() |
Coffee stirrers
go on next to "frame" the walls. Once the glue from these dry,
the structure is a lot more rigid. |
![]() |
|
![]() |
Basic roof
for the entry. note that the overall size of the building was set by the
size of the available cardstock. |
![]() |
Index card,
cut into single shingles and glued to the roof surface. |
![]() |
|
![]() |
the kitchen
door and some windows were added (also coffee stirrers) |
![]() |
Chimney's
were created from pink insulation foam. Cut slight slits into the foam
with a hobby knife, and than depress each slit with a pen to make the
shape. |
![]() |
The main chimney
- after the outline was done, a coat of glue and water over the chimeny
before spray painting. |
![]() |
I added foamcore
eves and a craft stick main header for the roof, and beefed out the kitchen
roofline as well with foamcore. |
![]() |
The main roof
sections were tiled off the building. |
![]() |
With the roofs on. |

back side. |
![]() |
A first coat of paint - vomit brown. This went on after the "plaster' coat of modeling sand and gesso had dried. |
![]() |
The front door is a cast resin piece that I had lying around, I thought the front door should be special. |
![]() |
I've started to base the model, the roof is now painted, and the main paint drybrushed with bleached bone. The wall section in the front is made the same way as the chimneys. |
![]() |
Here it is with the base color down (vomit brown) |

![]() |
And with a lightening of flesh |

Bascially done, it just needs a sign... |
