Awesome man, couple changes, the right side window on thrillseekers is actually a door, similar to this: http://www.macarthurglass.com/wp-conten ... r_door.jpg - but instead of double doors it's just a single. If I'm remembering correctly it opened toward the grove, so hinges to the right.

On the left side of the guest relations building there [s]is[/s] was a window under the breezeway. It looked like the other window but instead of a set of 2 windows it was just 1. It was located to the left of the big fence.

Like this?
guest relations

Thrillseekers


Thanks for any and all corrections that need to be made.If these corrections are not correct, let me know and I will change them again.

Also, I have final dimensions of the model...
6 Feet Long
4 Feet Wide
and the variations of the smaller measurements.

Is this correct? The window on the front of guest relations is closed up. But is this one closed up too?


and here is the corrected door:

I will assume that the above sketches are now correct. If I post any sketches and there are a few mistakes, please don't hesitate to correct me and I will make the changes.

I've been busy with two essays and other college work.
I have also had an idea. Once I finish this model, I can create a much smaller resin version for retail sale at the park. That's a great idea.

Even smaller. You know those small building replicas you get when you go to New York City? (well I've never been so I will just assume)
That is my plan. To make a very small scale replica for retail sale at the park. I can make one, or pieces of one and make molds so I can make replicas.

My entire trip to DC is on my YouTube channel.
Anyway, I will be finishing up my essays this week, finish some reading, and get ahead in one of my classes, then I will start the sketches of the bathrooms on the opposite side of the Plantation House.

Okay, the following pictures are sketches of my semi-final plans for the model. This is at 1.3 scale of my final model...
all one piece

The model will be so large that I need to make 3 separate sections in order to have easy transport.

the base of the model sections will be fit together like this.

The above pictures are the last thing I've had time to do lately. I'm working on getting ahead in my classes, then I will put my main focus on this model. Right now, I am gathering materials, such as posterboard so I can draw the actual size layout of the model. Again, I plan to have it done in time so I can bring it with me to the Winter Warm-up and drop it off (should the park like to have it). I hope that they will take it. I have no where to display it.
