Going along nicely Sue. Follow your instincts and this will continue to grow....it’s a creative hobby after all, not simply a jigsaw puzzle....

Excellent work Sue.

........I just get ideas come into my head..... Sue

Same with me. I make a start with a very basic idea and then hang around for something to stir in my brain! :upside: = :thumb2:

Thing is salad dodger Im was doing something else and I was suddenly looked at my model and the word sandpaper popped into my head strange . But yes you start with an idea and it turns into something bigger different. But with the help from the forum members here my model has been made better and they have inspired me to look at a my model in a new way with ideas .

Just post the question in the proper chat thread and anyone interested will pick up on it and post a reply. Looks real good so far Sue,
looking forward to see how the roof goes. Rick H.

Sue, just stagger each row by 50 percent or half way so the edges of one row don't line up with the previous one you just put down......also, you want to start at the eve or outside edge of the roof and work your way up to the top or peak as it is called......there, roofing 101 completed.....look to other experts for the Master class........can't help there, :rolling: I'm just a "piker"!

In addition to Rick’s hints, start with the bottom row and work upwards. Each layer should overlap the top of the one before. Look at a real roof to see what I mean.....
Great stuff so far, by the way!

Sue this is only a model which you are suppoce to enjoy doing just take your time an like the guys said have a look at your roof but just do the best you can if it dont work out no worryies as its at least you treid as ive done some things on my tiger that dint work out but you learn from your mistakes but so far in your moddeling i hav'nt seen any so enjoy but a little advise from me if you dont mind Sue an that is sit an look at it an just think of the best way to start as if you start off right then the tiles should just follow on each other but what you are doin is something ive never done so i'll be learning from you
