Modelling Workshop 5: The Coaching Inn and Forge (WD 143)

This is the final instalment of my revisiting of the Modelling Workshop articles from the White Dwarf's of the early 90's and the only one that I had not previously made as a teenager - the Coaching Inn and the Forge.


It was quite an extensive build and the instructions, at times, were particularly hard to follow, so some problem solving was required (which my teenage self would have struggled with). The roof to the inn was especially problematic; joining two sloping edges...

I've also made a few changes, namely the size of the footprint has increased, it always felt a bit cramped from the photos in White Dwarf and you couldn't really appreciate the two buildings. I've also improved the stable design and made a removable wall from the back of the courtyard so that the two buildings can be separated without creating an open courtyard. 




The doors, as per the article, are hinged on some paperclips.




Here you can see the forge and stable without the coaching inn and the long removable wall in place.


A better view into the forge and with it's roof removed you can see the forge itself (made from foam)




And the coaching inn by itself (pre-weathering):



And some Wip's so that you can see the construction and some of the materials/processes:







This image inspired me for the creation of the forge:


And the original article in case you're interested in re-creating this yourself:




And finally, my terrain building skills came in useful for my daughter's History homework, we worked on this together and she now has to learn the secrets of painting and in particular some quick dry-brushing and weathering techniques....
