The floors are not finished yet, but I've already started making some furniture for the house. First of all, I decided to make traditional Russian stove ( the link about it). English wikipedia is a bit wrong and inaccurate in some details, but you can get the general idea. Some good pictures:
I've made only half of the stove, so you'll see no flue. I'm in the middle of covering it with acrylic priming, so the edges are uneven everywhere, that's ok, I'll sand it, and it should look just fine.
And a bit of inside veiw:
Besides, today I bought some router bits, sooo happy about it, some are really good and I can't wait to try them all in action.
Also I've found some good hinges, quite cheap, I already know what kind of furniture I'd love to make soon;)

After long-long holidays...
Hi everyone!
Sorry for being away for such a long time. December was killing me - exam after exam, lots of studying, preparing for graduation work. Though this will be my second diploma things are still the same - hard work. This month I have to go through almost 20 books for the graduation work:(
Well, I won't be away anymore!:)
With my dollhouse I've managed only to finish the flooring and some of the walls painting on the second floor, and windowsills:
White room above should the bedroom, I'll paint the walls, just need to choose the ornament. Then I made the wallpapers for the living room, there it is:
The floor here is oak veneer. Also I need to make plinth for this room. It should be more European style than the others which would be more traditional looking. So the whole thing would be - 19th century, the beginning of it.:) That's how easily I switch centuries.:)
Tomorrow I'll show you some pics that inspired me to make it this way. Something more about Russian history. See you tomorrow!
