Clever Models Gatehouse

[ridetheory]

I just finished a build of Clever Models' gateman's tower.

Here are my blog posts about it:

Making a gateman's lever.

Test-fitting subassemblies.

Completed model.

It has a small design flaw -- the upper section attaches to the lower via the skirt of shingles around the middle, which leaves a gap between the floors, It's only visible in front of the stairs, and easily fixed with a bit of a second printout of the clapboard.

My next project is a hybrid card/plastic model; a whimsical HOn30 railcar consisting of a Clever caboose attached to a Jordan Highway Miniatures Ford Model T stake bed pickup truck.
