I have a couple still in the box, with future plans for a large medieval Japanese display. With no room to display it on my shelves, I dismantled the set I'd just built, and then set to work on making a Chinese restaurant instead.
After a lot of trial and error, and some building and re-building, I ended up with the building below.
It's built on a 8 x 16 plate, the same basic size I used for previous buildings in my Minotaur Bay display, such as the pub and the cafe.
Attempts at a balcony and a half-size second storey never looked right, so I turned the upstairs into a semi-open-air eating area, with large open windows between the decorated wall panels.
Lanterns hanging over the front door.
I took the picture with a bright light behind to get an idea of what it would look like with lights. I haven't yet incorporated any LEDs into displays, but perhaps one day I'll take that step.
