Top job, great idea, love it!

Thank you!
And a Happy new year!
I have a small desk built for the book. In the book I also continue to work. Wood working!!!
Sorry for the small photos. Something is wrong with my mobile phone.

The new foliage adds to the ramshackle chic of the place & looks TERRIFIC. I am curious to see what you do with the blank page of The Book...this is a fascinating thread to follow.  

a true artist!

Wonderful work, the addition of the foliage brings the cottage to another level of cool.

On the downside, it's not really good for playing MH with...
No, I'm just kidding! Really cool stuff, I'm sorry I cannot give a more useful comment

Excellent work. Very, very cool...

I have seen the last images are 3 weeks old.
But first I would like to say thank you.
In the last few days, I have a few things changed. The color of the roof and the boards. This has been quite a lot of time. I was not satisfied. Too dark, then to little contrasts, then already light, but the color is not liked me. The problem is the light. I do not have the correct lamps.
Difficult were also the pages of the book on the left hand side.
I have the paper in coffee for aging. When taking out and during the drying are me some broken. But I had some more to test. The upper side I glued on plastic foil in order to make it harder.
The tree in front of the house is a little foliage. It is blocking the view to the house. So I have a tree completely newly built.
More vegetation. The fence was also newly painted.
For the book I had plywood used. And the thing pleased me not so good. I had some wallpaper found and stuck to the plywood. The looks better. And red is ok.
The chimneys and the top of the tower, I also had new paint. The painting of the roof i was not careful enough.
It took a lot of time.
The witch is also done and must be placed.
The upper side of the book and the bookmark must glue.
Tomorrow is my sister's birthday. Done!

Finished!
Now I have some photos.
First the witch. She's the third miniature I have paint. The witch was a gift. Unfortunately lacks a shoe. I do not have the right material to the shoe to modeling. Also I have no desire to do this.

That is GORGEOUS! Building Book, & Witch are BREAUTIFULLY WELL DONE! I'm sure your Sister will be thrilled with it.  
Too bad about the foot. A plastic Goblin or Night Goblin would have a foot about right for a replacement...if we lived closer I could give you one.  

That is simply fantastic! Amazing work. Your sister is very lucky.

Many thanks!
I am glad to finished it.
It was a very long construction period.
I hope, my sister like it.
Some more photos.

FANTASTIC! Your attention to details is OUTSTANDING. It one of those creations that will yield a new discovery with each viewing. Your Sister will LOVE IT!  

Definitely, she will...   GREAT!

Thank you again!
Tomorrow I go to my sister...

I started with a new project. New topic, new size. Pirates in 1:72. After I posted "my book" on Facebook, I was asked whether I accept jobs.The Pirates tower was the most interesting.
The basic shape is again from foam. The stairs are created.
Of wall made of plaster i made a mold with Latex milk. This fortified I on the negative of the tower. So I can made straight walls and also in various radii.

Promises to be interesting...

AAARRRGGH! That looks like the start to ANOTHER WONDERFUL creation...something inspiring to follow!  

Pirates! Now you are talking mate!

Many thanks, guys!
All lengths, which I have in the head are incorrect. I have a completely new start. Most of the things I use are now too large. The search starts from the beginning.

The tower is part 2 of a wonderful diorama of a German artist. I am very proud that he is so much trust in me. And I can build a part of it. But I will only build the tower. He makes the painting itself.
I had some gypsum blocks. In this I cut the stairs with a saw and gluing the individual parts to put on the floor height. Of course they must still be processed. Stones and structure are still missing. A needle and a wire brush I used.
In a circle segment of 30° I  carve paving stones, shaped and the whole again with latex milk fully molded. After endless days of casting I had enough bottom plates. Then they I could with minimal post-processing on the middle floor glueing. The joints will be filled, after them I carve the stones.
The last picture shows the Pirate diorama part I. Take a look at this site and the wonderful painted minis in scale 1:72!

It looks like your LOVELY tower will be part of a nice/cool neighborhood. GREAT STUFF!  

Yes, Michael is an artist, especially in the small figures. I know of nothing better in this size. And I have the honor to work for him. This makes me proud!

Some of the walls can be seen from both sides. I have here the stones carved. Unfortunately there is a difference to the cast walls. (Pic1)
I have the joints still processed once again. The result is better. (Pic2)
On the stairs I have made mistakes. This i with the small stones hidden. It was a good idea, I think.(Pic3)

The stonework is BEAUTIFUL. FANTASTIC WORK!
