Stadteckhaus im Umbau

After I finished the house under breakdown, I wasn't satisfied with the result. I thought it a nice idea to put a house under construction next to it, kit 232149. But this turned out to be a bit of a deception, since it was very small. So when I saw a kit for a house under reconstruction, I bought it 

The model represents a house from which the roof is under reconstruction. The roof looks very impressive 

The facade has a lot of details. Unfortunately, you won't see much of it, since the building is with the rear to the viewer. I used a wash to make the floor of the attic looks a bit nicer. 

There's a pub at the ground-floor and I decided to go for an Irish pub. I used some of the parts that were not mentioned in the instructions, such as the signpost.
The only thing on this kit which is a bit disappointing, is the scaffolding. There are no ladders and it doesn't reach up to the roof!
I weathered the beams of the roof and added to builders.

The scaffolding and the name of the builder 

This is the rear side of the building facing the viewer. When I was in Germany on holiday last autumn, I took a lot of pictures and they were perfect to make this wall look a bit more pleasant. I made decals of them and applied them on the wall. I also weathered the all a bit. 

The two houses next to each other: new and old! Of course, there's a lot to do to make this look like a real city. 

A very brave workman doing some work on the roof. Another man working on the chimney. I didn't like the idea of a fierce rain-shower damaging the building. So I used a piece of plastic coated paper that is used to sell cheese on the market. Removed the papier and airbrushed the plastic with orange paint. I like the result!
