Title: Skywalker`s First Custom Western House
Post by: Skywalker on February 14, 2011, 17:12:50
 :wave:

Finally i had some time to work on my first Western House. The Bank. It is made out of wood + original windows ,doors and a stair which i bought for 3€ at ebay. It is playable from the back and i want to finish it with inside lights and some nice furniture. This is the first house and i am really glad how it worked out - some more western houses will follow soon.

Baseboard is right. That's a great idea! It worked out perfectly for that!

very nice.  i like your combining of the wood siding and the playmobil windows, and using the baseboard was an excellent idea.  what are you using for the ground?  it gives a nice sandy appearance, and it is fairly close to scale.

Looks very good!

Remember all we had here at that time was fireplaces, candles and especially oil burning lanterns for light. Pot bellied stoves were the most common heating device with fireplaces next.

LEDs would fit in the Playmobil lanterns (thinking of doing this myself).

You've given me some great ideas and inspiration!
