I am glad that you all are enjoying!
I'm back with more photos of the end of the first phase of construction of this great cathedral. There were no difficulties so far and most of the pieces are by paste. Even so for a model that is almost all by pasting I think that is not bad. They can see the central tower next to a tape measure so they can see the height of the model that is slightly higher than what is written on the cover of the model, perhaps due to not be well fixed at the base. For now I will not paste the four figures that will be at the top of the towers of the corners. |

Continuing with the abside, I now have 14 pieces that should be glued to the big piece that it is in last two pictures.
The problem is that there are four different animals in the 14 pieces and only after a friend send me some pictures I start to understand the real position of each animal. Let’s see if I don’t make any mistake in placing the pieces. |

After a long break I am back to continue this big model.
Next, some of final pieces of the Abside section of the model. |

I picked up a copy of this model when in Barcelona last year. Good luck. Show me the way! |

Now, finally the second section is ready. There were missing those small pieces around the tower.

I too have the Sagrada, plus a number of other Domus Kits. Could you tell me what type of glue you are using? There is a warning on one of my models not to use water-based white glue. I was a bit surprised to see the warning. In any event they are such beautifully produced kits I wouldn't want to mess them up. They're quite rare. Good luck with the Sagrada - Domus rated it among the hardest of the 30 odd that they published. |

That is odd. I built a Domus kit about a year ago using Aleene's tacky glue which is a water base white glue. No problems at all.
