Rolife Greenhouse

[PatW]

Having built a greenhouse for my wife just ten years ago, she wants me to build another but a shade smaller! But this one won't be growing real tomatoes/cucumbers/chillies/flowers or peppers, just scale model versions!

 I completed the Greenhouse door today. A few problems during the build were: finding that the 'glass' was too small lengthways and opaque, plus the clear glue supplied has hardened slighly so difficult to get out of the squeezy bottle. So taking the top off and using cocktail stick to lift it out. I collect clear plastic retail packaging, so easy to measure and cut.

Pretty cool Pat! I looked at this online and it appears to be 1/24 scale. How much paint is it going to require, or is it well molded in colour?

A few more bits!

More today,

I'm waiting for Fotki to answer my complaint. With this on there each time I want to post another photo it opens an extra Album under this kit heading! Why is that? Instead of having one file/folder under Rolife Green house it opens another and another!

Although I have quite a few more flowers in pots to do, I started putting together the greenhouse floor layout..

Nearly there, a few blunders on the way but sorted, away now for at least two weeks!

So, back from 2 weeks cruising throughout Scandinavia, I have painted the woodwork as we would have to if outside in all weathers in an acrylic light grey..
