For a while I've been working on a model consisting of a combination of paper and plastic sheets. I've gotten quite far with a larger building, but to make sure it would work the way I wanted it to I decided to do a smaller one first. A greenhouse was, in my eyes at least, the logical choice.

This opens the way for everybody who wants to design a paper building with lots of glass, like a control tower, for instance.

What a very clever design. I'm contemplating a modern airport building with glass fronts like this.

Tryed the link. All I got was something about giving wet cookies. I have to say, it doesn't sound very appetizing.
But the photo of the greenhouse looks cool.

Robbyrobot, Dutch sites have to tell you they are collecting cookies. Just click okay, and you can follow the link.

Nice!

You could also try your hand at a glass-roofed, open-walled passenger shelters for train stations. Usable for pre-WWI all the way up to the present.

jpattern2, I'ld have to add it to a very long waiting list.

Two showrooms are top of the list right now, one two stories, one single story.

Thanks, Gungnir. That worked and I could see your work. This would make an interesting addition to almost any game set in the western world.
I've been known to collect cookies. My favorites are chocolate chip. ;)
