I started making my stately home out of mount board, I hand cut it all out even though I no I could have used a laser cutter I felt it would give it more character.
I glued all the window sills, frames and sides together to create the stately home and added the brick detail, doorway and roof trim before starting to paint it.
I painted the base colour on first then the window frames and sills, which was quite difficult as the frames are quite small and there is a lot of them.
I painted the roof trim and the started on painting the marble effect. I painted on the lines in a colour slightly darker to the base colour and then wash the colour from the line down. I then used a plastic bag and dry brushed on to it and pressed it on to the walls of the stately home (image on the bottom left) Then using a wet brush smudged the darker colour that I had just applied to make the marble effect.
Below is my finished model of the stately
home fully painted.
