It does look great. Depending on ones financial situation it would make a great start for a Diorama!

Hi all. Mine arrived the other day, absolutely awesome kit. Every plank and nailhead is replicated, even on the inside. It is made from plywood and MDF, with clear sheet for the window glass and PE for the door hinges and interior light shades. All the parts are lazer cut, just a few small nubs to cut to release them from the sheets, just like PE frets but wood. The insructions are clear and easy to follow. Will post pics later this week ( on vacation for a week from Wednesday - getting married! ) Actually, will probably start a new thread on this kit. Regards, Pete in RI

Bon Voyage on your nuptials. Thanks for the heads up on the kit. I hope they do 1/48 and 1/72 scale versions as well.

Thank you all for your kind words. I am now a very happily married old man! lol. Yesterday went perfect, the justice was 2 hours late, and it started raining just as we finished the service! ( was outside in our garden) So a mad dash to get the electronics and chairs inside. My son and his wife set us up with a Zoom call on a laptop so family in England could join in. Great day    :D  Regards, Pete in RI

It is Juan. The parts are laser cut, just small attachment points to the frames which are easily cut through. There is detail on both sides of the parts, the door hinges are PE, as are the inside light shades. The instructions are well printed on quality paper in colour and are easy to follow.
