Today's blog post is a bit late. I have had a busy morning. At least I am able to get to it today. I have only done a small amount of work on the diorama since the last blog post because I have been out of town.
As I posted last time, I sketched a pattern for the components of the house on graph paper and then transferred the patterns onto foam core board. Since then I cut out all the pieces for the house. Today I will be putting the pieces of the pattern together to build the house. I am hot gluing the pieces together. The hot glue works well to bond the pieces of foam core. Getting the foam core apart if a mistake is made is another story altogether, but it does work.
I am having a little bit of trouble with the dormer. It is not exactly as I would like it to be. I am going to have to make a modification to the pattern. It is just a matter of working with it until I get things to settle in the right place.
By my next blog post I will have completed of the shell of the house. I'll post a photo of it then.
