I hadn't appreciated how versatile it was particularly how thinly it can be applied. I still didn't have the patience to scribe in the stonemason marks though. I don't know how you can do it!<br /><br />And many thanks for pointing me towards Wenlock. Inspirational stuff. You and Geoff have given me plenty to think about.Chashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01708048658215702951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144821432722919980.post-16607720384833124332013-08-31T23:23:00.067+01:002013-08-31T23:23:00.067+01:00Like the other commenters, for a minute there I th...Like the other commenters, for a minute there I thought it was real. You have done a magnificent job and you should be very chuffed with yourself! There is so much attention to detail and finish in the model and the colouring is perfect.<br /><br />Geoff is right, William Clarke would suit your painstaking technique. There's a fantastic modeller on RMWeb called "Wenlock" ...he's done a Clarke building you will like. I think you've raised the bar on church modelling, look forward to seeing what you tackle next!Iain Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03633733907566547236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144821432722919980.post-6343701629707287792013-08-31T16:59:26.757+01:002013-08-31T16:59:26.757+01:00Thanks David for the kind words and encouragement....Thanks David for the kind words and encouragement.

Thanks very much for the steer. That'll keep me quiet for a while.

The colouring and attention to detail is spot on and I just love that studded door.<br /><br />As for a station building have you considered one of William Clarke's masterpieces ? His buildings feature some lovely ornate chimney stacks and other detail which should be just up your street :-)Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01458331893613937280noreply@blogger.com
