Default Fern Villa update

Hi All,
Just a few pictures of where I'm currently at with my first project.
About to install banisters to the stairs and then put the stair carpets down (awaiting my order of stair rods).
Never thought it would be this tough but it's well worth it

Hello devs2009

Thanks for the pics fix. It all looks great so far. I like how you've put in the little items to indicate which room is which.

It might be tough - but it's great fun, isn't it?

Thanks very much, it certainly is fun now that it's starting to 'look right' . I'm also waiting for a delivery of real slate tiles for the roof so I might be back next week for a shoulder to cry on

looking great, don't fret over the tiles they easy to fix into place, only thing that will have you crying is the price, but you already know that

Thanks folks.
I'm sure that miniature "money pit" jokes have been done before so I'll not bother
I've no regrets at all, enjoying every minute of it.
My next batch of pics may include some showing my tears running down the slates like rain

It looks fantastic! So realistic.

I haven't really started spending so may change my mind, but even though some of the costs sound expensive, I think of the money you are really saving by fulfilling your dreams in 1:12 scale instead of real life scale.
