Very sweet, although I can’t believe that curtain wall is going to hold up well.
I’d have thought the 3D printer community must have plenty of suitable Scottish candidates?

You would think so.. Times like this I wish I had one. . Ah well. It's back to traditional methods.. now, sticky back plastic is bound to feature in some way.... I have a postal tube and some MDF, plus some cardbacked foamcore... .

The next challenge will be getting the roof to go round all the sticky out bits, then it's paint with PVA, on to good old plasterwork.. and I have a cobble roller.. hmmm.. could be interesting.
Eternal wargames butterfly.. I should be painting, and on a whim I build a 17th Century Scottish Z-plan castle.

Its got cardboard roofing on now, a base and the first plaster coat for walls. Next step, sand down the first texture coat, then do second texture. The time consuming bit is going to be tiling the roofs. I reckon it's going to look OK once I get some detailing done, steps, roof detail, tiles, down spouts, etc.

Totes amazeballs :o That’s fast work! Roofing should be straightforward with laser-cut card tiles, I thought it would be the stonework that would take the time?
