Amazing. If you take comissions, you are going to have a very busy year...!
Anyways, did you also do the books yourself?
Thanks,

No not my own work. I found a dollhouse furniture maker and gave her the measurements and reference photos I could dig up.
Also found a woman that could do the books and another that does print on fabric.
But very happy how they turn out for me.
If anyone wants links to contact these women I'll post them.

This is awesome dude! The best I can do is to contribute: shouldn't the brown bricks be way darker?
What was the procedure to do the doorway? Do you intend to make the door a moving part, maybe when you add the missing metal handle?

And that turf under the doorway looks like just mown, on the contrary of grass on the wall. Right? I know where to source several kinds of grass rolls (anybody interested, say so or hit me up), but they are all just-mown. Any trade secrets you might want to unveil about that lengthier grass...? ;-)

I can barely wait to see your fence and bank, with Bilbo, Gandalf and Frodo... :)

I'm in Ireland.
Furniture maker is in Italy.

OK. Thanks.
Should I assume that the italian furniture maker made all 3 pieces? (chair, table, holder)
Books look great. Are they actual carton+paper, or are they sculpted?

Thanks again, and keep that very fine work up, mate!

“And a very fine morning for a pipe of tobacco
out of doors, into the bargain. If you have a pipe about you, sit down and have a fill of mine! There’s no hurry, we have all the day before us!”

Then Bilbo sat down on a seat by his door,
crossed his legs, and blew out a beautiful grey
ring of smoke that sailed up into the air without breaking and floated away over The Hill.

Fantastic work! I’ve been flirting with the idea of attempting dioramas for some of my pieces - or at least custom bases. It looks like it’s fun and rewarding!
