The Mill, part 4

I made quite a bit of headway on the mill tonight. I completely finished the face with the stairway on it (apart for some window sills), including the hand rail. Since the rail is made only of matchsticks it is going to need quite a bit of reinforcement...I can see some ivy about to be planted.



I also completed the end of the mill that is adjacent to the stairs, although a small part of the bay window still needs work.


Finally I assembled the one side of the mill wheel. There is just a bit of trimming work to be done on this before adding the metalwork.

    1. But it will all come to a grinding halt tomorrow if I can't replenish my supply of Emerkit!

    1. Yes it is. It is successfully filling in the time before my next batch of Crimean War figures arrive.
