MiniMadWoman Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Is there somewhere I can view these houses? I'm only familiar with the Willowcrest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Teresa, Under "Question of the Day" Tracy posted some pictures of the old houses, I think it was the latest question, the "log cabin". I absolutely was blown away by the Beaumont, because I have been wanting to build a Georgian but RGT is 'way too rich for my blood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nameless1 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Is there somewhere I can view these houses?

Beaumont exterior and interior (first house on the page) Tiffani exterior interior Brookwood exterior interior Victorianna interior (it's a half-scale McKinley) Tennyson exterior interior Willowcrest exterior interior Jefferson exterior interior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuttiwebgal Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 although all of the houses on the list are wonderful...since I already have a Victorianna there was only one vote for me! nutti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniMadWoman Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Thanks Holly! :lol: Calamari, thanks for the links!! Oh what a hard decision . . . Beaumont or Willowcrest?!!! How does one decide such things?!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimodog4 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Geez- I'm also stuck between the Beaumont and Willowcrest. The Beaumont must be pretty old- I've never seen it before- most plantation-like homes are boring, but that one looks really neat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I was so desparately torn, I really want the Willowcrest brought back, too; but when I saw the Beaumont picture Tracy posted elsewhere (thanks for the links, Wende) I was blown away because I want to build a Georgian and that one is gorgeous.

AllThingsMini Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 OMG! The Beaumont is amazing! I can't believe it ever went away? Tracy...what is the thickness of the wood used in the kit? It looks thicker than the usual 1/8" luan plywood. This is the house that gets my vote! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minis On The Edge Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 Hi There Marie, it is the same thickness as the other kits. It comes with siding though. I tell you, I had this kit and the wood was great. But I am the one who hates the super thick wood and MDF LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPCullen Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Now you done it Marie! Now you got me curious and I'm gonna have to go home today and open up the box! Tracy, I don't hate MDF or plywood, I just can't see myself flipping them upside down and toting them from house to house as I work on them, LOL!

Minis On The Edge Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 I hate it cause it is so hard for me to bash (remember, big tools bite harder than the small ones in my experiance LOL) and I won't even think about trying to get hubby to help me move the darn thing. I'd never get anything done :lol: . Now, when it comes to my other craft projects, they are perfect because I don't have such a big piece to carry ;) . I could never make a book shelf or towel rack with the thin plywood, but shucks, give me MDF or thick wood boards and I am off and running.

hydroped Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Calamari, Thanks for the links! That helps. I'm sorry I missed the posts about the price of the beumont - what a house! But the Willow Crests really gets me. I dunno what it is about it - oh yes I do! The roof line - I'm drooling. I want that house :lol: For my full sized house!! Ah well that's the great thing about minis right? -David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minis On The Edge Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 Wow, I just checked the poll and the Victorianna is winning. I am so surprised! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bee Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Speaking with all of the authority of one who has yet to finish her first Buttercup, I would say that the Beaumont and the Willowcrest share equally in the Wow! factor-- but I wound up voting for the Beaumont because I figure that years of following someone devotedly around Civil War battlefields and the like should net me a Southern mansion at least. Can't understand why the both of them are not leading in the poll. Gotta figure out a way to vote twice. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishMist Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Decisions....decisions... The Willowcrest for me.... and I agree... it's the roofline that does it. The Victoriana one looks too much like other little houses.... gimme something different! Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nameless1 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Wow, I just checked the poll and the Victorianna is winning. I am so surprised! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'd bet it's the scale issue. RGT is doing their utmost to corner the market for half-scale, but their current 1:24 kits offer no flexibility for the creative builder. The Victorianna isn't especially cool in itself, but it's half-scale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Gotta figure out a way to vote twice. Shh, when I clicked on Tracy's link this AM to check the poll results so far it let me vote again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakyshaky Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I agree the Willowcrest is beautiful!! Every time I say this is my last house I see another one that I just gotta have. My husband says I should build and sell but I just don't know if I can. I would worry they were not being loved. Besides can you really make any money at it? psst, every time I log on the poll is there to vote. Is it supposed to change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPCullen Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 OMG Marie! I'm drooling over that one too! That is beautiful! Except, I don't like the bottom at the columns ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minis On The Edge Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 Marie, I Love it! It is Stunning! The columns are just awesome. Yeap, that is my kinda house. I would love to see how you bash the Beaumont. There is nothing like a woman who "can" use power tools. I want to take a class on using some cause my lack of use holds me back. Hubby is too busy with real houses and thinks cause I help him with ideas that I can just do it in miniature LOL. It's great One of us have the confidence LOL.

eskimodog4 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Oh my gosh- the Victorianna is winning by a landslide- what's up w/ that? It's just a 1/2 scale McKinley- I don't get why it's so much more popular than the other kits. I voted for the 2nd time today... Weird...

Minis On The Edge Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 Well, I did mention this to a 1/2" scale group I belong to LOL. I guess they are voting while the others are not. I did mention it to other forum/digest I belong to. This is very interesting to me also. I thought it would be the willowcrest or Beaumont or even the popular Brookwood. Mention the polls on other forums you belong to so the polls reflect what people want. Shame on you all for voting twice. And giving me ideas to do it too ;) :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
