Throughout the white card model making I have been incredibly ill (headache and general cold symptoms) which made this process so much more effort for my poor brain. Despite this I was determined to try get as much done as possible whilst I was at home.
It was all quite straightforward until I got to the point where I had to make the stairs and bridge. I made the railings as a seperate sheet to the base and I had to make two sets of these which was very time consuming. The bay window was also a little fiddly but not as complicated as the stairs.
To make the poles for the structure holding up the bridge I used a piece of mountboard cut to the diameter of the pole and then wrapped thinner card around it to get the cylindrical shape. This wasnt as neat as I had hoped but it doesnt look too bad in the grand scheme of things.

I was able to complete my model for Monday in time for our lecture on colour models and to move on to the next stage. I am very pleased with how my first white card model turned out!
