This is a series of paper buildings printed by Dover. I took them, cut out and glued the main buildings together, replaced a lot of the paper with scale cut out wood that I built from stock I purchased, or was given to me, and made the roof from flat lathe pieces, the sidewalk from 16" scale planks, the porch supports from scale posts, which I cut to length, and inside each building are the framing pieces to keep the paper from buckling. The windows that are cut out, have plastic sheeting or tissue paper in them. This one took me around 40 hours to scratch build.
