Victorian house model start

My next structure on the town street will be an old victorian style house.  I did some research and got some ideas and created a sketch that is the basis for this model.  This is only part of the front of the house.


The upper porch will have a railing and a roof with a peaked house roof above that.  The windows and doors are all Grandt Line parts.  The posts are cast metal parts.  I am still debating on some of the features of the house - I just make up this stuff as I go along.  Sometimes that makes for problems but they all seem to work out somehow.  Thankfully there will not be any interior details.

Below is a vintage 1920 or so truck hauling a tower.  There is a trailer at the back to support this fairly tall tower.  I expect getting the tower upright was fun.


I assume the guy standing on the top was only there for the photo.  This would make for an interesting model but I do not think I will build it.
