Hi Ludo,
I just love the footprint shape of the city hall building. Also, the light
grey arches inside the white arches on the dormar(?) on the roof is great! I
did not know that they could work in that manner.
The brown house looks great as well. The only thing I might have done
differently would be the red windows and roof. I know there are limitations
to available parts for those two areas, though. I really like the wrough
iron fence.
Excellent and inspiring work!
I look forward to the station.
Best,
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,
Thanks a lot for the reply. I know that i should use black window frames instead
of red ones, but at the time of building, one year ago, they wheren’t available
in black. I think they are now, so it’s possible that i change them when i get
some black window frames. What’s your idea for the roof? Different color? Did
you notice the 6 white square window frames,instead of 8 on the first floor? I
stacked two window frames 1x4x3 and hide the upper two white windows behind the
brown wall (arch 1x6x1).I used the same technique for the windows in the roof of
the city hall. see:

Concerning the city hall, when i first saw the pictures of it, i didn’t notice
that the long, street facing wall, was bent! I tought that it was on one line!
So that would’t be difficult to build. Only when i looked better and spend some
more time to compare different pictures, noticed i that this wall was bent on
two places. Once i got a printout from the original plan of the two street
facing walls at scale 1/25 was i sure of it. The angle from the 2 walls is 15
degrees. Therefore i use hinge bricks and hinge plates to fix the tree walls
together. The original city hall was build in different stages over several
years. When you look at the following picture, you’ll see that the walls between
the windows are build in SNOT. Also the corner on the second floor with the
Madonna statue was a chalenge to build. The door behind the couple on the
balcony can open.
Regards,
Ludo
