I've decided to go with these products partly because they're reasonable in price and very well made and partly because I don't want the William and Mary House to be too heavy when it's done. Real brick and slate must make for VERY heavy models!
I will do some extra faux finishing on some of these, especially the slates, to keep them from looking too pristine, but I'm very pleased with them. I've just ordered some modelling dust (for the stone work) so I'll be able to make a start on the exterior quite soon!
I'm going out right now to buy the plywood for the final floor and for the roof. So exciting!

Sounds like you're on a roll now, Nina!
ReplyDeleteI've heard mixed reviews regarding the veri-slips. However, I've never used them myself, only the heavy ones...never again, as you say they can make a project weigh a ton! lol
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to see how you find these! :o)

It feels that way, Irene :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I have my own doubts, Michelle, but they weren't very expensive and I'm going to play with them and see if they work out for me :)
Hi Nina. Thanks for your comment on my blog (about the piano). I have been following you for a while now, but don't always leave comments. Too busy, I'm afraid :-) However, I often have a quick look, because I admire your detailed work.
