Update 9 Cuckoo clock

During this busy week, I haven’t been able to build much. I did finish the entrance and put the floor on the first floor.



The floor has wooden planks with nails. I painted the nails silver. I’m always amazed by the little details I find in a building.

You do pay SO much attention the details…and it shows! So nice. I would never ever pay attention to those because they will never be seen…so you are much more keen on those than I am. If it won’t be seen, I’m NOT doing it. :zany_face:

If I’m not going to see a piece, I usually don’t paint it. If I’m in doubt, I do. I’m convinced I’ll still see this part. The small details probably won’t be very noticeable, but I hope by accentuating them, they’ll be more visible :wink:

I colored them with a metallic marker and it was exactly the same size as the tip of the marker so that was easy :wink:

The nails are the easiest to paint because they are just little dots :wink:

Thank you @Atropex :hugs: I’m also happy with the color choice…I’m currently working on the top section and don’t know exactly what colors to paint the clock yet. But I’m sure that will work out after a good night’s sleep. :wink:

For the large parts I use acrylic paint, for the small details I use markers and sometimes acrylic paint, it just depends on what color I want to give it :wink:

Thank you for sharing some tips since I don’t often use markers in kits but definitely give them a try. :pink_heart:
