Hello
It's wonderfull. In France there is an expression which says "Je saigne des yeux tellement c'est beau" If I translate into English that gives  " I bleed eyes so much it is beautiful "
I do not know if you understand the sense of this expression

[fsn]

Indeed. We say something similar.

I have designed a 3mm (1:600) model of a Waterloo battlefield building intended to be Decoster's house, a small inn that stood on the roadside between La Belle Alliance and Rossomme Farm. After hostilities, Decoster himself claimed to have been Napoleon's guide during the battle, which earned him much, perhaps unmerited, praise from visitors to the battlefield.











My model of Decoster's House stands on a 20mm square base. It marks the latest redesign of my 3mm Waterloo buildings.

I contemplated raising all the models by 1mm at their base to accommodate a 1mm layer of texture base paste. This is still possible if it is preferred. Decoster's House in the photographs does not have this and it wasn't a problem swirling paste around the glued-down model – but care had to be taken at doorways.

I'm rather pleased with the timber outhouse as it is probably one of the smallest buildings that I'll attempt in 1:600. Also, designing any sort of timber house in this scale is rather daunting. I designed it to face inwards, towards the courtyard, but decided to glue mine down with the main detail facing outwards.

The plan is to sell this house as part of a set with Rossomme Farm and Planceloit Church and Village.

Cheers, Michael

Excellent Michael. I'd have them as I have just started a 3mm Napoleonic collection.

[WeeWars]

Thank you, gentlemen!

How good is that?

[Leman]

Yes indeed!

Very nice, how many pieces is it made from? Is it a kind of jigsaw, or just layers?

It's only when you see the thickness of the base the you realise how small the buildings are.

He's just showing off now !!
Those are absolutely belting, Michael !

Cheers - Phil.

It's only when you see the thickness of the base the you realise how small the buildings are.

Rossomme Farm is made up of 36 pieces, mostly the roof sections that give the models the tiled look.

I opted for my original plan to make the buildings solid and without the plugs associated with MDF buildings – so, yes, they're made of layers. Being solid, they're easier to squeeze together when gluing.

Very nice

Those are very good ideas. I will make sure I do when my website is set up for ordering.

Cheers, Michael

Thanks, Paul!


Here's a pic of my new 3mm La Belle Alliance next to my 10mm model of the same.





Cheers, Michael

Man alive, that's a big difference!

Don't do 3mm so have never seen the comparison.
