RP88's Current/ Future Projects

Hello everyone. I wish to start this thread not only to ask for help but to display my skills as a model builder. These will be all related to my photo comic project, Hopes and Dreams viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1631.
With that out of the way, it is time for me to ask for help.
I need floor plans of a relatively small, multi-room japanese styled home that will be featured in the comic and if it goes well, will build to order :eek: .
In the coming weeks, when Reycal comes in, I will make her my own kimono using this site as a reference and will scale to fit the figure. http://dollmaker.nunodoll.com/kimono/
So, I ask again from the community for help for a floor plan of a traditional japanese styled house that I can make. Thank you all very much. If I must say, think of this as a contest. The winner will be built.

Maybe a bit TOO ambitious but I will post daily unless no progress had been made. Also, I gotta make a yukata that will be also posted here. Until next time folks.

Hee hee. Ha ha. Iz gotz mur updatez.

Can't we agree on sizes here?

At the moment of the pic, I was 1/2 complete decking.
Image

With enough decking in place, I marked out where the walls and doors will go.
Image

And now I am a hair over 2/3 completed of this half.
Image

Right now, I have the porches to build, the second half and a roof as well as purchase furniture and accessories. Also, I need a left hand for Howling until I can find mine.

Just to check, but, what are you using as materials to build this house ? Looks like tongue depressors, but I'm not sure.

All they are are popsicle sticks.

ha ha ha. I got more updates!

This is the front porch of the house that I am building.

Reycal is trying to tell Howling something above the noise of construction.
Image

As for the search for her missing hand, I discovered I am missing six pieces of wood that are CRITICAL for the porch steps. I am now more than convinced that if I find them, I will find the hand. Until then, I will make due with what I got.
