Mil - 1700s Farm house

This article was published Mar 15, 2020.

Finally started on the swedish old farm house from the 1700s. The prototype is the real deal and not a replica, it has been kept intact since it was built. I will turn the backside out, so no windows will be visible, as if the yard is on the other side outside the diorama. I really like this type with three different sections like this and the thatched roofs. This was once a very common house style in south west of Sweden in the Halland region. The famous "Falu rödfärg" (rödfärg = red paint) was not yet common on a farm house at that time, but really tempted to paint my model red, will see when all pieces in place.
