Excellent photo story as always, I enjoy catching up with your work.

Are these pictures going to be used in a behind the scenes film to go with the main story? I think everyone would love to see the house and gardens grow like a one of those time lapse films.

Thank you dear Friends for your encouraging comments 

What an exciting day this has been 

Not only Miss Periwinkle and Monsieur Firmin have worked their magic in the gardens but some very special Guests have arrived on Regent St 

We wish a very warm welcome to :

Mrs Applepie ( created by Isa from Tricornejock.com )

The lovely Mrs Applepie is one of the finest Pastry Chef of the Victorian and is just returning from Paris where she worked with Louis Ernest Laduree.  She will be in residence at the Mansion until the first tale will start. In the meantime, she will work with the Kitchen Supervisor Miss Adelaide on the decoration of the Victorian Kitchen.

The Three Musketeers ( created by Jean Mi from Tricornejock.com )

Athos played by Henry Irving

Portos played by James Crew

Aramis played by Charles Kelly

These 3 Gentlemen are amongst the finest Actors of the Era and will be in residence at the Mansion until the victorian tales start.

WOW!
Words fail me,
I honestly cannot express how brilliant,
how lovely, how simply stunning your work here is!!!

Just one thing...
After so many glasses of (what appears to be) champagne or wine,
I wouldn't want them working on my lawn. (Just Kidding.)

Sorry if people have asked this before,
I didn't get a chance to read any of the text.
But, where do you get your scenery pieces from?!
They are absolutely gorgeous!
And I think when I start refurbishing an old dollhouse
to go with the few Victorians I collect,
small things like these would be marvelous to have around.

Thank you very much dear Friend 

I am so happy that my diorama has inspired such nice comments from a Member who has been following my works for sometimes now 

I indeed spend a huge amount of time preparing each scene and researching what I believe is the ideal accessory to the Victorian theme.

Every accessory is not only thought as a complement but also needs to fit in a scale approaching that of Playmobil which is by all means quite a difficult exercise 

Now that the gardens are nearly completed, I will start working on the decoration of the Victorian Kitchen and once again scale will be the word on top of accessorizing the Playmobil Victorian Theme with items which complement it without ever overshadowing it 

I cannot possibly tell you how happy - I should say over the moon  - that the first Guests Stars have arrived at the Mansion and it means so much to me that this project is involving Members from the entire Online Playmobil Community as it really is a dream come true 

And those who have followed my tale on the Electricity Fairy will agree that the addition of perfectly scaled indoor and outdoor lights are creating a truly magical effect to every scene
