Villa Familie-Journal

Here is the finished Villa from Familie-Journal. Printed to fit on A4 size.
Footprint of 7.9 in x 7.1 in/200 mm x 180 mm
You have to make the stairs yourself from pieces of card.

I’d like to stay there. It looks like it should be a bed-and-breakfast. This sort of model is good for small fantasy vacations.

Those stairs are very elegantly made. A series of rectangles that get progressively larger. Very nice--beautifully executed.

Very nicely done. As many stairs as I have created for these, it really makes me wonder why they didn't make stairs as parts of the original kits.


Nice balance on the color

Thanks for stopping by. Yes, it looks like a nice place to stay a few nights. You could go to the corner pavilion for some contemplation.

I do not understand why the stairs were not included, either, although that would be a lot of narrow folds to execute. I had to get the thickness of the card close to what was needed then found some acrylic paint that seemed to go with the overall color scheme.

I have the model printed out at the original size according to the download on the website. It looks like I have some card that is the exact thickness of the stair treads.
Here is the finished model compared to the ground plan of the original size.

It might get built oneofthesedays.
