Old Collingwood Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share #1357 Posted August 24, 2021 Evening all, onward and upward - the doors were painted and weathered and glued in place - one fully open and the other nearly fully open to show the detail framework on the back. Next I had to dry fit everything to get an idea where I needed to cut the floor down to (this will then influence how much the side wall needs shortening) the floor was marked and cut through using my blade and ruler - the a tab was cut into. Next off was the duck pond - this comes with a pre-cut cardboard outer that simulates the edging stones, first thing I did was to pencil the inner lines - then using my sharp blade I carefully cut around the mark - then when the rough cantre was cut out I carried on cutting away and dry fitting the out piece. When I was pleased with the fit - it was glued in place. This shows the dry fitted wall against the ground piece/pond.

Old Collingwood Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share #1358 Posted August 25, 2021 So, if you are wondering about the pond? it will have a sheet of paper underneath, then I will paint inside a light/mid green then poor over an acrylic resin clear water I brought, its supposed to be "self leveling" and takes a couple of days to set, then I will add a bit of a wash and my normal rock/stone colours around it and on the base.

Canute Posted August 25, 2021 Share #1359 Posted August 25, 2021 OC, make sure the seal of the paper on your base is super tight. Any pinholes will be an avenue for the resin to escape, either 1.) flowing onto the floor or 2.)gluing the base to your table top. I have been involved with doing the first boo-boo, so I have an acquaintance with this stuff. It works great and looks good when it's done. popeye the sailor, king derelict, mtaylor and 1 other 4 Quote Ken Started: MS Bounty Longboat, On Hold: Heinkel USS Choctaw paper Down the road: Shipyard HMC Alert 1/96 paper, Mamoli Constitution Cross, MS USN Picket Boat #1 Scratchbuild: Echo Cross Section Member Nautical Research Guild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Collingwood Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share #1361 Posted August 25, 2021 Evening all, more work on the frontal area around the pond - the wall from the Barn to the front wall needed shortening, to make it fit the new floor plan, I then trimmed the edges of the floor base where the outside walls meet. I then dry fitted all the buildings to check they all fit and meet as they should. OC.

OC, You probably know all this but if the resin is anything like the one I used for the Penelope diorama its a good idea to "tent" the pond with a cardboard box or sheet of cardboard over it to stop dust (or in my case cat hair) drifting into the setting resin.

Old Collingwood Posted August 28, 2021 Author Share #1371 Posted August 28, 2021 Evening all, I started on the pond today - first thing was to cut a sheet of paper then glue it underneath the base covering the area of the pond, I used PVA and applied a few coats inside also, this was the fully dried using the hair dryer, after I applied a few coats of mid Green the some washes. Then the fun stage - I emptied some of the Acrylic Resin into a smaller jar and emptied it into the pond - first mistake (I had put to much in and it was over the height of the edging stones) so before it had set I removed the majority of it - and re applied but a smaller amount that just covered the bottom. I used the hairdryer to speed up the setting process - I could gradually see the resin clearing from a white liquid to a clear water - this took about an hour of dryer work. Not too bad for my first attempt.

Old Collingwood Posted August 29, 2021 Author Share #1377 Posted August 29, 2021 Just checked the pond again - the paper has stretchered and not flat - I guess it needs something underneath it more solid - like the base its self, might need to cut this paper out if I can not get the paper to shrink and go flat again?

I think I made the paper situation worst by speed drying it with the hairdryer - my impatience got the better of me as I wanted to see it working, I will wait and see if it shrinks back into shape - its is touch dry at the moment just got a few wrinkles in it where it has stretched.
