If you ever wondered how to build a model house out of cardboard, then you’ll be pleased to know the plans have numbered parts and putting them together with card is really easy to follow. You’ll also discover lots of demonstration videos on this website, and customers also get free access to a Printing and Assembly Guide showing how to construct houses and other structures from cardboard.The 5 house plans (3 houses and 2 bungalows) in this series feature brickwork designs so would look at home in the same residential neighborhood with other brick homes from the same era. The neighbours in the miniature street scene you are creating would likely have similar residences, which is usually what you see when visiting actual neighborhoods in real life. In the real world the homes would most likely have been constructed by the same builder around the same year, so having 5 brick homes and bungalows in one street is logical. The builder probably did a bulk buy on materials and bought a big quantity of bricks for a special price. That’s the likely real life scenario, so replicating that in miniature makes perfect sense for model railroaders and people creating dioramas, or for children completing school projects.
You can create an entire street scene with by printing out duplicate copies of these paper houses, so 5 homes could easily become 15 homes, with each one looking unique with the help of some clever positioning of miniature scenery elements such as trees, bushes, gardens, driveways, plastic people and animal figures etc.
How To Build A Model House Out Of Cardboard – Materials and Supplies Needed
Not much is need to make up these houses from the downloaded plans. Print the plans on regular photo copy paper, and glue the printed plans onto card-stock (cardboard from an old muesli / cornflake pack is definitely suitable). The video below of the small general store show the basic construction process for these house models.
Cut out the plans which will now be mounted on the card, and glue the individual pieces together. So as you can see materials required for making these miniature homes is minimal. The whole construction process for making these 5 scale model houses out of cardboard takes only minutes and they are unbelievably sturdy when dry. That’s not to say you couldn’t add additional cardboard supports for additional strengthening if you feel it necessary. Take a close up inspection of the model houses and you’ll spot the intricate detailing of the brickwork texture is already finished for you. So you won’t need to spend hours adding realistic touches or painting brickwork trying to make it look genuine.
Each of the plans for making these cardboard model houses has been pre-weathered to add character and true realism to the street scene. You can still add your own weathering or finishing touches if you like, however the photo-like images used in the designs are just like looking at “life-like” real world structures.
