Biblical Royal Palace – Work in Progress…

 

Admit it - you were expecting a part-built model, not a building site!

 

The King needs a new palace, so has employed workmen to build it.

Scratchbuilt from all kinds of odds and sods, I mean from the finest Cedars of Lebanon and Jerusalem Stone, as usual on a Sarissa base.


Clay bricks from Pendraken/Minibits.

Brickmakers are a converted Essex Arab civilian and a Blue Moon African villager with a Peter Pig Viking head.


Timber from my garden.

Carpenter is a converted Xyston Athenian rower.


Masons’ lodge from split bamboo kebab skewers.

Stone waste pile from Salisbury Cathedral workshop via a rockery I used to have.

Proto-Ionic capitals are cast in resin from a master I made from styrene and brass rod.

The mason is another converted Xyston Athenian rower.


Remaining figures from Essex and Xyston.
