    Thanks @duerer !  It’s hard to say how many hours I spent actually modeling it, but I started around 26th of July; the picture above is the current state as of Oct 9th or so.  

    Although I worked on it every day, I got sidetracked a lot by reading old books on architecture, carpentry, joinery and construction methods, or making screenshots or scans of them for reference.  And during that time I also spent lots of it making a new spotify playlist that I listened to, for mood music, (of early phonograph recording from the 1890s-1910 or so.)

    Then I went down a rabbit hole of reading about various early American vaudeville entertainers and British music hall performers from that era.  Completely unrelated of course, but I started getting some inspiration for some future projects because of it.  😀 

    If I was a normal and more focused person, I think it might’ve taken me about 3-4 weeks.  If I’d only done the exterior part and not modeled the construction/frame or interior… that part might’ve taken a couple, maybe?
