Here is my design plan for the 1/4 scale Spanish Revival House. Lots of photos and lots of ideas! I'm thinking now that I will build it with 1/16" basswood.
I have the wood I need. I just need to figure out how to cut it. Sure wish I had that Micro-Mark table saw I've been wanting...
I've never built a quarter scale house before. I'm not even sure where to start!?
Hope you have a great day!

Kathi, have you considered illustration or mat board instead of wood. I use that a lot for quarter scale. It is much easier to cut and measure and it comes in large sheets at Michael's or at art supply stores.
I love what you are doing so far! The house is going to be beautiful!
I'm so excited to see you build this one Kathi! I love your mock-up so far!
Seguro que será fantástica :-) Si tienes alguna duda sobre las casas españolas y te puedo ayudar con algo desde aquí solo tienes que decirlo :-)
Un beso.
Your plans look great, I can't wait to see more.
Hello Kathi, your plans look fantastic, but I agree with Caseymini. Think about using card, much easier to cut and if you make a mistake you have a huge sheet to play with......you could make a whole village!!

The plans for the house are fantastic. I am sure it's going to be a beautiful little house.
Kathi, great plans - I am sure the finished house will be lovely. I am addicted to quarter scale, it is a wonderful size to work with. And I too agree with Caseymini - I would recommend using mattboard or foamcore. Easier to cut and if you make a mistake it is easy to rectify. You can use spackle or similar over the exterior to give a rendered finish, and paper or paint the interior. Whatever you choose I will be watching with great interest.
