1/2 Scale after windows, rockwork & details added. Wood construction, cast resin details, polyester resin for stucco-like textures. Most lines are bent like a freehand sketch. The wavy diamond pattern window was framed out in basswood then cast in silicone for two part resin castings. The base of the lighthouse model has these same diamond windows, and its far too time consuming to re make so many. When framing out a window I use a wood blank ‘plug’ thats the same dimension as the casting. Then remove the plug and install the casting and its a perfect fit!
Finished piece for a private collector. These are also ideal for G-scale garden railroads, part of a European Village.
