Frank and everybody else good afternoon hoping all is well.
Moving along I showed a cardboard cutout before of a house that I wanted to build well it has progressed this style I am very familiar with, when you drive around you find all sorts of stuff tucked away like this some still lived in but most deserted full of snakes I don't go inside.
The second picture shows the back the door leads down from the kitchen the rustic bathroom will be on the right the toilet out in the landscape a pan no sewer. The windows are glass louvers typical pain to make but in the end, they work.
cheers.

Kim, once again one of your extraordinary works.

It has a very credible and artistic appearance.

I guess purple is a big designer color in Australia.

Hi Helmut and Russ.
Yes, the purple is pushing the fashion boundary here about.
Locally everybody goes to a chain of stores for all there building , gardening and home decorating it is called Bunnings a bit of a legend really. When you are going down to buy some paint most check out the mis- tinted can of paint usually they are a bargain but you have to put with some wild colours like Purple, goes well with the Dump down the road or the worst house in the best street the key to making money with real estate.

That looks good, Kim. Will it be occupied by people, or will there be snakes slithering about the interior?

Hi Bill.
this is a happy place a family lives there they have a good dog and a couple of cats to keep the unwelcomed neighbours away.
cheers

Looks great, Kim. I can easily picture it sitting in the Aussie bush somewhere.

Morning all trusting that you are in good health.
Moving on and building a few bits and pieces in 1/35 scale this time a motor mower. This one is a Victor 1959 Australian made and was marketed with the slogan-Turning grass into lawn. Bit on the small side to be made by hand but in the end workes -styrene and wire.
cheers.

That's cool! I don't think I've ever seen anyone model a lawnmower before.

Nice idea, Kim. Such small details make a scene realistic.

Hy Ray and Bernard.
it was a struggle especially the wheels if they could have been machined or printed would have made the task a lot easier. As it turned out it is OK and  the overall finish is what I was looking, for now, I feel that I am lawnmower king.
thanks

You definitely are this forum's unchallenged lawnmower king. Now where is your leaf blower? -- Russ
