Thanks Matt, forgot to mention on this post that I was inspired by your posts on the fruits and veges in wooden boxes you posted on your blog.
Deletecheers John
Awesome! From the very first to the very last ones a joy to behold!
ReplyDeleteThanks Moiterei, good to hear you enjoyed this post
Deletecheers John
Brilliant! So much well observed Detail (For example, I can´t recall any model Building having wall bracing on it!!) and the damaged parts are the most believable/realistic I´ve seen on Models. Well done!

Superb attention to detail and a great eye for colour and the finishing touches. To think it has all been scratch built as well.
ReplyDeleteIf you were able to make moulds for these and go into production, they would be a big seller.
Happy New Year to you John.
Pat.
Thanks Pat for your comments and hope you too have a happy new year.

Amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteThey are more than excellent.
I think I'll build a greenhouse with all the glass missing for my first attempt, then perhaps a dog kennel.
Thanks Isembourg for your comments, good to see your builds

Absolutely mind boggling. Amazing. That Chateau is a work of art.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave

ReplyDeleteThank you Michat

You sir, are an artist!
ReplyDeleteThank you Pat G
Deletecheers John .
Excellent work, John. How many hours do you reckon it took for a complete building, eg the church or chateau?
ReplyDeleteAnd just how do you integrate the perspex floors? Are they removable like normal, or are they glued in?
Thanks nitpickergeneral sorry for late reply, Blogger does not notify me if I have a new comment on the blog.
DeleteI am not sure how long each building took as I usually work on a number of terrain projects simultaneously but the larger building do take a bit of time.
Yes the perspex is glued in place to the upper storey of the building.
Amazing stuff John, great work. I just have a question on the buildings. How did you find measurements and dimensions? I’ve been through about four buildings just trying to get that perfect scaling down but I haven’t been able to crack the code yet. Any tips?
ReplyDeleteThanks Unknown, are you on Facebook, if so send me a PM, as its hard to place a diagram in these question boxes.
Deletecheers John
Hello Sir? I'm in obtaining the plans and dimensions for the buildings Sir. Where can I find them Sir?. Thank you Sir.
ReplyDeleteHi Rico , see the comments below
Deletecheers John
I love these they are works of art.
ReplyDeleteDo you have plans of the buildings if so are they for sale
Thanks Jason for your comments, sorry I don't have any plans for the building, I just used a 28mm figure as a basis for height of walls, inter space, door ways, window heights and as commented down below related them to real life porportions

cheers John
Comparte plantillas??se pueden descargar??
ReplyDeleteSaul all the buildings are scratch built, I have no templates, I just roughly penciled it what I thought would be a good size for the buildings using a 28mm figure and related the door ways, windows and room area as per real life.
Deletecheers John
Hello, Your work is great!
ReplyDeleteI have a collection built over the years. Van you tell me who is the manufacture of the MDF buildings you use?
Hi Field Marshall, thanks for the comments, all the buildings are scratched built by me. :-) follow this link
