Reflection

Creating the houses

While I was doing more of the landscape for our resort, Rosy mostly built the homes, and we are both very happy with the way they turned out. What we did first was evaluate our house designers that we drew in planning and discussed what we could actually make with the materials we had. We went with just using plain cardboard as the plain white really captured the modern style we were trying to achieve, and also because it was the easiest material to make them with. We first measured out all of the sides of the houses and while I cut all of the pieces out, rosy would hot glue them together. Unfortunately this process didn't go as smoothly as planned as I managed to cut myself with the Stanley Knife I was using, nearly faint, and had to have it wrapped up for more than two weeks to let the cut heal. Because of the accident, Rosy kindly suggested that I should leave the cutting for her to do while I go off and start on the landscape for the model. I thought that was a good idea as we could get more done that way and to be honest, I don't think I was going to go near a Stanley Knife for a little while. At least until the cut healed. But in the end Rosy did a fantastic job with the homes and they look great on top of the mountain.
