More Wells again.

Here are some more drawings for the ongoing work on the soon-to-be-published 1:240 scale model-kit of Wells Cathedral. As you can see, I draw everything three times its final, published size. It's good for the detail and helps my eyes which are not as good as they used to be. Here are drawings for the Chain Gate, the North Porch and the Central Tower. The tower posed a real problem. Whether to go flat or relief. I opted for flat sides for ease of construction and tried to suggest depth by using crafty shading.It is a compromise for sure but an OK one at that.
