grazhina Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 My last 1:12 scale house is complete and my studio is all clean and tidy. Here are a few photos of the house, more are on my webpage, together with the tutorial I made earlier this year about doing the stonework. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KathieB Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 What a charming cottage! Thank you for explaining how you accomplished that realistic stone work in your blog. I stand in awe. Thank you as well for the tip about Black slick Tulip brand fabric paint -- when you want to create a shape, what do you paint on? Waxed paper? Ceramic plate or tile?

Kathie, while thinking of how to do the next thing, and idly picking at little bits of dried glue and paint on a plastic plate which I was using as a palette, when the Tulip paint easily came off. I grabbed a scrap of acetate I had and started drawing out some small squiggly shapes, let them dry and huzzah - they peeled right off.

What a great technique to have in our arsenal of using materials the way the manufacturer never intended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Well DOH! I have used the white Tulip paint to "frost" button cakes, but I see the black in my future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shareb Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 What a beautiful wee cottage! I love everything about it - but particularly the beams, brickwork and stonework and the wooden paneling! Now off to look at your website! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueirishmoon Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 The exterior is fabulous! Great job on the landscaping. If I didn't know better, I'd swear that cottage is life-size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
