1:144 Scale Midsomer Cottage By Nell Corkin

A typical half-timber English cottage,made from 1/32" birch plywood. The timbers are stained N scale 2x8 basswood strips; gesso is used to simulate plaster, and the brick infill is printed paper. The doors,windows and chimney pots are modified N scale castings; the roof slates are textured paper.

The landscaping was done with Woodland Scenics materials, except for the climbing rose, which is etched brass foliage that has been painted and carefully shaped - literally one leaf at a time.

Height to top of roof: 2 1/4"
