Many people, seeing beautiful and neat models of buildings made by architects, dream of learning how to create the same reduced copies of beautiful houses. It is not easy to learn how to make real complex models, but it is in your power and ability to assemble a decorative model of a house at a scale of 1:50, having previously drawn on paper the outlines of the details and facades of the house, as well as the roof and frame.
Instructions
Step 1
To create a layout, you will need plywood with a thickness of 6-8 mm, as well as materials for facades, partitions and a roof. Make a frame of the house out of plywood and place it on a flat surface.
Step 2
Separately prepare the facades, cut according to the drawings, and cut door and window openings in them. Then sand the cuts and joints.
Step 3
Make the foundation of the house from wide slats, gluing them to the finished box of the house, and also make a separate porch with stairs from solid wood bars.
Step 4
Cut out doors and window frames separately from thin plywood, sand them with sandpaper, glue them along the contour with thin strips and glue them tightly to the frame of the house in the openings. Instead of glass, insert plexiglass of millimeter thickness into windows with plastic or wood frames glued from the outside.
Step 5
Take a separate sheet of plywood and cut out the gable roof for the house, and then the roofs for the individual buildings if you want to complement the house with a yard. Solder downpipes and gutters from thin sheet metal, and then secure them to the roof slopes. Make stove pipes from small pieces of wood.
Step 6
After the small parts are ready, start assembling the house. First, assemble the box of the house, then place the roof on it, and then attach the porches to the outer doors.
Step 7
Carve out some beautiful posts or slats with which you will close the joints of the plywood sheets to make the house look more beautiful. Sand the surface of the building, cover it with wood stain and varnish, or paint it with paint.
Step 8
Start making building models with simple models - for example, small huts or barns. Then you can improve your skills and move on to building more complex layouts.
