Finally, some progress pictures...

Chimney, unfinished
The difference between the new brick and old
 I mentioned that I had run out of brick paper for the fireplaces in the Fairfield. The picture on the left is of the fireplaces and the last bit of unfinished chimney.

When I reprinted the brick paper, it came out quite a bit lighter than what I had used before. You can kind of see the difference in the picture on the left (the chimney on top is the new paper, the fireplace below is the old). I think the stuff I used before may have been printed on my other printer that I had to replace when it died. Anyway, I decided to just redo all of the brick so it would match. I still need to redo the insides of the fireplaces and the hearths, but here's how it looks right now. I think I actually like the lighter brick better anyway, so I guess it all worked out.
New brick paper


Extending the tower walls
Since I wanted to open up the third floor tower room, I had to add some wood pieces on to the tower walls to make them match up with the roof on that side of the house. Here's the extensions installed. I need to add another piece of siding and paper the inside of the tower room still.







Bathroom, billiard table, dog & cat.
Also, I just received some halfscale furniture and animals that I had ordered for the house. Here's the 'eyecandy'...

 I love the itty bitty little dog and cat. I don't have any people for the dollhouse yet, but I have animals.

Look how tiny!
Now if I could just get the house finished enough for them to move in. :)
