What a difference a door makes. That is one beautiful model.

Thanks Charlie, it's coming along. I am working on the foundation now.

I enjoy it to watch you building a wooden structure. It is very different from the styrene kits I do usually.

[ak-milw]

I have the foundation finished and starting on the back porch.

[ak-milw]

The pantry addition roof and back porch are done.

Great idea on the pantry addition! I have always found it more interesting to modify houses if the start as a kit or as a scratchbuilt. I also like to add things like indoor plumbing, TV antennas and other details to show how the houses evolved over time.

Keep up the great work and quick progress!

[ak-milw]

Greg, I do that a lot myself but I can't take credit for this one. If you look at the floor plans the pantry is on them, you just don't see it in the picture.

[ak-milw]

Working on the front and side porch.



all those small vertical pieces might take awhile.

[Catt]

Very nice build Andy.It sure looks to be another Kramerpiece. :mrgreen: Did you mention what windows and doors your using,or am I missing that information ?

[doctorwayne]

I'd guess them to be from Tichy, who, along with Grandt Line, have about the best selection of styrene windows and doors available. Many of them are identical, so I suspect there's some connection between the two companies.

Kind of looks like my house ! One may have to rotate the photo.

[ak-milw]

Yep, Tichy windows and doors.

Erie, yours is way bigger.

I have all the fancy vertical pieces on, now for some paint.

[ak-milw]

Front and side porches are finished except for the steps.

Andy, that is a beautiful build, I love the porch railings and posts, they really set things off. You have got a candle burning under me. I may have to see if I can do one just half as well as you.
