Product Description

Bring a touch of fairy-tale charm to your model railway or architectural diorama with The Small House of Uncle Martin, an attractive 1:87 scale card model kit from Orel (143).

Unlike many architectural models, Uncle Martin's Small House is not based on a real historical building. It is a fictional, fairy-tale inspired design, created with a charming stylised appearance that makes it an interesting addition to miniature scenes and layouts.

The 1:87 scale (H0 scale) makes the finished building particularly suitable for use alongside model railway layouts, architectural dioramas, miniature villages and scenic displays in the same scale. Its unusual appearance can provide an eye-catching feature within both realistic and imaginative settings.

The model has been deliberately designed with straightforward construction in mind. Assembly is very beginner-friendly and forgiving of small inaccuracies, making it an excellent introduction to architectural card modelling. At the same time, building the house allows less experienced modellers to practise many of the cutting, folding, shaping and assembly techniques that are also required when constructing larger and more complicated card models.

The kit consists of 4 x A4 sheets and provides an enjoyable project without the complexity associated with more advanced architectural kits.
