continuing on the terrain band(shell) wagon...

Again, dipping into the seemingly endless terrain black hole that is the storage area under the stairs...

A small but pretty piece from Sarissa's Gaslamp Alley collection, a bandshell. Strictly speaking, this is a Victorian piece meant mainly for Britain. Some quick (but admittedly cursory) online research and I discovered that this style of bandstand was common to Britain but not so much on mainland Europe. No matter... historical accuracy be damned! This was too nice a kit to leave languishing in the forgotten pile.

As with all Sarissa kits I've encountered so far, construction was simple (though fiddly, in this case). Only one part gave me some trouble... the roof. This is etched card to represent the curved outer skin. Unfortunately, I didn't give it the care and attention required in the prep phase. The end result turned out as "adequate" and taught me (again) to spend a few minutes visualizing the end result instead of diving right in.
