The puma is finished and will be set aside for now. It's supposed to be a small diorama and will only be added at the end.
Now it's time to start designing the diorama.
I need a house. I used a Vaku kit from my collection as a template.
Since the Vaku kits consist of two halves that rarely fit together nicely, I decided to build the house out of plasterboard.
First, I needed plasterboard. I stuck sticks from Sylvester rockets tightly onto a smooth board with tape, filled it with plaster, and it was done. After it dried, I traced the outlines and cut it roughly to size. I engraved the brickwork and drilled out the windows and doors.
So, hole by hole, as if perforated (see photo no. 1), then milled through the webs and filed the window dimensions correctly. Adding water from a pipette reduces the risk of breakage. Nothing broke for me. Window frames can be used from the railroad accessories. Pay attention to the window dimensions. The decorations are simply cut from plastic sheet and glued on, as are the window sills and the destroyed window frames.
It is important that after all engraving work, the house is treated with “Maler Tiefengrund” (painter's deep primer), which is a mixture that makes it easier to remove wallpaper. In Germany, it is also known as Makulatur.
It ensures that the substrate is not so absorbent. You would need a lot of paint. The collapsed roof is made from an orange crate.
The green window covers are casts I made from master models. They are made from plates from the railway sector. Smaller scale than H0 /1 /87.
That's it for now on house building. If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them.
Here are a few more pictures with different lighting.
