Built in anticipation that a client of mine will want these for his coastal layout. Two typical B & B establishments with no smoking in rooms. No loose women. Doors locked at 10. Breakfas 6am - 6. 10am. Porridge extra. Pay in advance. Vacate room by 6. 15am.Don't like it ? Tough. Cheers. Allan.          |

... And you'Ve just knocked them up since Chritmas too I'll bet! Mind you, with no loose women allowed that'll be the only knocking up being done I suppose  Delightful as always Allan. Marty |

Brilliant again Allan. They would not be out of place with the Tudor set you did a few weeks ago. Keep up the good work. |

I'm so jealous I am going to put in a bit of gratuitous criticism here: Allan, you said this was in black and white, but it seems to me it's black and white in colour ... you lied to us!!!  As the others have said, these are absolutely superb, and I feel like I could open one of those doors and walk into a scene of genteel luxury, with salt air wafting past and mingling with the smell of tea and scones with cream. Heavy sigh! |

There is a very good reason they are black and white..., it's the colour that styrene sheet comes in !  Seriously though, these are superb models.  Allan, one thing I want to know, how you do the roof tiles ?? I really like the ruffed up effect on the tiles. Cheers, Gary. |

Another Black and White themed hotel to add to the collection as a third is under way. It usually takes about four days to build something like this as there's very little texturing to do - just black and white styrene and a bit of colouring with the roof tiles. Allan.          |

4! Did you say four... Days? It would take me that long just to cut out the window glazing! I guess if you were doing it for a living you would develop techniques to speed the process pretty quickly. Marty |
