Very nice progress Jim. You inspired me to make another one so I am currently working on a viking style book nook called Voyage through the Storm. I'll maybe post something when it's done.

Next step was to assemble the two cafe tables. The wooden parts were a bit multicoloured and so 1 airbrushed them to even up the finish. The table cloths were peel off stickers.


The markings on the top are to position the stuff which goes on the tables. The problem is that firstly both tables are identical as to where things go and secondly the position markings show when things are in place. Also the corners look unnatural. I took off the cloths and scrounged some thin material from the wife's 'stash'. I cut out a rectangle and painted it with dilute PVA and stuck it in place. I used metal blocks to hold the edges in place.


I ended up with this which I feel is better.


I can now put the odds and sods on the two tables in varying positions.

Really great Jim.Our local hobby shop is starting to get them in.

Thanks Steve

I've been arranging the stuff on the tables. The kit instructions had both tables looking identical which seemed a bit false to me . I painted the roses and arranged things differently.
