The
project I am working now is a little bit out of my “comfort zone” so it takes more time than my previous projects to build and assemble
the different parts.
First,
I built one of the walls but in the end, I found out that the door
was far too big for 1/12 scale so I started again.
The
second difficulty comes from the curved walls on each side. The
material I used was too thick and didn’t bend easily so I had to
start again in a thinner version. Now I am working on the cornices.
Straight cornices are not too difficult to do but curved ones are
harder to do.
The
next step will be the roof.
My
friend Alison will soon start designing the sculpted elements and
make molds to duplicate them.
Here
are a few pictures of the first prototype:
It is looking fantastic. You are doing a beautiful job.
ReplyDeleteThinking about it now and looking at the original building, I can see that it could have four sides (rather then being open in the back) and be totally enclosed. The front could just lift off, between the rounded sides of course.
You're right Catherine, the building I am working on has 4 sides, so 4 doors and 4 curved walls.... But the back door will be different, I'll put mirror not glass so that the wall at the back inside can be used to put a fireplace or a painting, but from the outside it'll look like a door and from the inside like a wall
DeleteBonjour Patrick,
ReplyDeleteQuel magnifique projets. Avec deux artiste talentueux qui collaborent, je suis certain que ce sera un autre chef d'oeuvre.
A bientôt,
Giac
Merci de tes messages, Giac, c'est toujours avec grand plaisir que je suis aussi ton travail et tes modifications de decor.
DeleteBeautiful. I can't get over those curved walls and how the arched windows echo them.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sheila. Yes, the proportions of this building and the details of the sculptures are very elegant.
DeleteTrès réussi, tu peux être satisfait. J'attends la suite...
ReplyDeleteGeneviève
Chere Genevieve, sois patiente car ce projet risque de me prendre plus de temps que prevu. On se voit au SIMP?
DeleteBien sur qu'on se verra au SIMP.
DeleteGeneviève
¡Impresionante!, feliz día:-)
ReplyDeleteMerci beaucoup :)
DeleteWow!!!! It will be fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteI'm curious when it's done :o)
Greetings
Then you may have to wait a little while as I think this buiklding will take me more time than the big houses I usually build, LOL
DeleteLooks great Patrick. A certain amount of frustration in finding the right materials, construction techniques and proportions, but an enormous amount of satisfaction when it works. Well done!
ReplyDeleteYes, Shannon, this building offers a certain amount of challenges to beat but I think I'll manage ...with time and imagination.
DeleteWow! It is looking wonderful! I admire your dedication to getting the shapes and proportions right! Keep up the great work! I look forward to seeing the decorations!
ReplyDeleteThank you, but there is still a long way to go before I can start thinking about the interior
DeleteIt is going to be beautiful! Watching with interest.
ReplyDeleteThank you Megan. I'm going slowly now with the roof....
DeleteJe suis admirative ,rien n'est laissé au hasard. Il me tarde de voir le travail de la toiture!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBonne journée!!
Isabelle
Merci Isabelle, oui, la toiture est un gros morceau. Un peu difficile a executer mais je devrais y arriver avec du temps et pas mal d'essayages.....
DeleteMagnifique projet, je suis emballé car j'adore particulièrement ce genre d'architecture. Je comprends qu'il prenne du temps, aussi je patienterai calmement avant de découvrir la suite.
ReplyDeleteBon travail Patrick
Merci Jean Claude. Les cotes n'etaient pas trop durs a realiser mais les corniches et la toiture.... c'est un casse tete a faire. Je n'en suis qu'aux essais en carton. Mais ca avance un peu chaque weekend....
DeleteI absolutely love it! I can't wait to see more details. The curved walls are such a challenge, but they're also what makes it great. I'm building my first dollhouse since I was a teenager and a kit is quite challenging enough for me for now! One day I hope to make something as beautiful as you.

Thank you Caroline, I wish you the best with your first dollhouse. You see, you'll ge addicted too.....
DeleteI can tell that you are enjoying the challenges Patrick and I already know that with your level of skill that this is going to be one Spectacular building by the time you've completed it- Keep it coming! :)
ReplyDeleteHello Elizabeth. Yes, I like challenges and solving problems but this time, I have to think a lot before I cut pieces and even though, sometimes the result is not what I expected.... So I go very slowly on that project.
DeleteQue gran comienzo! se ve impresionante.
ReplyDeleteBesos.
Merci Pilar pour vos encouragements :)
Deletevery successful, you can be satisfied. I'm waiting for what's next...

Thanks a lot, Genevieve. I'll try to post some new pictures soon if I have time to work on the roof.
Deletele début promet une très belle réalisation . je suis sure que vous allez faire une jolie merveille . bon courage pour les moulures en courbe .on attend la suite avec impatience .
ReplyDeleteMerci Catherine. Oui, ces moulures et les raccords entre les differents morceaux sont un veritable casse-tete pour moi qui n'est pas tres doue avec les angles s'ils ne sont pas "droits" mais je pense y arriver.... Apres, le toit, un autre challenge...
DeleteMagnificent!! I am so very looking forward to seeing more!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Carrie
Thanks Carrie. Too bad I don't have too much time to work on it, only a few hours at weekends. But it will be completed for sure.

ReplyDeleteLe pavillon est déjà magnifique. Je suis très curieux des prochaines étapes de ce merveilleux projet! Je vous souhaite bonne chance avec ce beau travail.
ReplyDeleteWow....I adore your talents.
ReplyDeleteI have just found your blog with all the wonderful miniature buildings you have created. Your attention to detail is amazing, I just can't stop looking through all your photographs of them. We are (hubby & myself) building 2 French Maisons. We are novices at building though have been collecting for some time now.
I do hope to see more of your fantastic work. Cheers from downunder.
