The roof is paper, coming from cookie packaging
The windows are from hard packaging plastic

I was first impressed with the corrugated tin roof and was going to ask how, what...

What a tremendous project with some creative materials!

In paper shops you can buy corrugated cardboard like that.

I used some in a couple of my buildings:

Thanks guys,

it was a nice build.

@Rad_Schuhart: I try to buy as little as possible for this kind of buildings, we use them a lot, even outside in all weather.
Would rather spent money on tank models etc.

Jan

What a useful accomplishment "just to fill-up some time." That is certainly time well-used. Ich gratuliere Ihnen.
