Wow! Beautiful job! I've used similar techniques for PDF cardstock buildings. I, too, use heavier, thicker chipboard. I print color on paper, then I glue that to the chipboard. I typically use Hot Glue to assemble the chipboard as I do not use the building interiors, so I don't care what the interior looks like. LOL!

I admire your work, it is truly remarkable for scratch-built work. I was expecting the onion dome was made with a hot wire cutter attachment jig! I think this is the first time I've seen it down manually, as you did it. Very impressive. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!
