Spring Cleaning in the burrows
A room with a view: 3
Time to add detail to the birdhouse.
-First I replaced the perch with one big enough for some of the larger birds to use (or a couple of Sparrows to have a cuppa and a chat)
-Then I cut some pop sticks to size and added uprights and corner braces to the walls like on Tudor houses.
-Next I laid out a platform of mini sticks for a sculpted awning. I traced the shape of the hut onto them for a better fit, cut them to size and glued them onto a support beam before adding them to the house too.
-Next I cut a balsa disc to the curve of the wall, same as the previous method. Then I added some little walls to it using off cuts from pop sticks. It will be a flower filled window box in the end.
And that’s about it.
My minis have finally arrived too so I’m mixing my time between terrain and painting.
Cheers, T.
