Basically, know I've got loads of Airfix and Matchbox Japanese lying around so thought I'd have a mooch in the attic to see if I could find them. Didn't but 'found' lots of other things...
And to start off:
 |
| Don't know when I made this matchstick fort. Quite a while ago. |
 |
| Of course, one advantage of just using natural wood to make a wooden fort is that you can get away with not painting it! |
 |
| The one problem with the fort is pretty clear from this view. As the walls dried they sort of bent... so there is a definite 'not straight' look about the walls! |
Hasn't been used in years but two things are obvious: Must use it, must make more of my own forts.
Fort looks great. The 'bent' look adds character and does not detract from it at all, I reckon. In fact, adds a 'frontier' look to it!

Thank you. It was part of a learning curve - and is useable so it works.
DeleteGreat find, l look forward to seeing in in a battle!
ReplyDeleteStrictly speaking, not a 'find' as I always knew it was there - but certainly intend using it. Some day.
