1 Story House w/Side Porch

Nice kit although it lacks any details to go with it. Good value for the price but will need painting and detailing.

I built this model after building the 1 story house with porch on the front. As with the other model the instructions were well written and easy to follow. The only problem I had was how to make the front gable to stick on the roof after painting it,since glue has a hard time sticking to painted areas. I was able to tape the main roof on the assembled house. Then I glued the front porch on the house. After the glue dried and set on the porch, I was able to glue the gable to the roof. Just make sure you glue the gable only to the roof only and not the to porch! Once the glue sets and dries you can un-tape the roof and gable and paint them together. That way you will get a nice even coat of paint on both the roof section and the gable. After that finishing the model was a breeze. Another really fine model.

This house was pretty easy to assemble. The porch walls were the most difficult but I think the majority of my trouble was from using some older glue.
