Review on 🏯 Dunhuang Ornaments Building Province: Exquisite Microworld Treasures for your Collection by Mike Morris

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well designed and easy for those familiar with this type of models

I made the Metal Earth models that I got from the hobby lobby but I wanted something pretty and something more complex. That fits the bill. I'm amazed at how well this fits together. I assume that when building part of the tower you can do it easier than the instructions say. This comes in handy as you build the same structure 7 times to create a stacked tower. Here's what I did, and I ended up building them in under five minutes each. Bend the base base of this tower base into shape.2. Attach the red part of the window/door to the base.3. Bend the tabs at the top of the window/door section (the tabs that will connect to the green roof) outward at a 45Β° angle.3a. Bend the tabs on the green roof down at a 30Β° angle. (Don't worry these are exact angles...just an estimate here. This will set all the tabs in place so they're easy to slide together at the same time) over the already bent window lugs/doors.5. Attach window/door hinges to the green roof6. Attach the roof to the inside of the base. Somehow it made it easier for me. That's a cute part. Very small: fits perfectly on a bookshelf or window sill. Also, if you want to add a battery operated tea light inside, that's fine and will probably look really cool.
