pssaha, Tanya, how cute !!! Mom probably really liked it.

pssaha, Tanya, the house is beautiful, looked at from all sides, great!
pssaha
Girls, thank you all very much for your attention and appreciation !!)) Mom really liked the house! I showed it to my friends, so they ask to be photographed and not eat yet, so that my relatives can see))

Girls, did anyone make a gingerbread machine? I was asked to make a lightning McQueen car with gingerbread. Here I sit and think, how ?! There are all sorts of bulges and protuberances. It's not like cutting a shape out of a biscuit. I beg you, at least guide me in the right direction))

no, of course I understand a lot, but the fantasies of the customers should have limits, and it is our sacred duty to define them!
It's one thing just a typewriter, I even met trucks and the like, since there you can do not with rounded parts, but glue rectangles of different shapes. But specifically, Makvin 3D is already beyond the bounds!
Do you need it? It seems that I cannot imagine such a fantasy beautifully and dignifiedly. Maybe I just do not have enough skill and imagination? .. I made an ordinary Russian Railways locomotive (not a popular version, but a real Russian Railways train) from gingerbread. It was very hard, long and tedious, especially considering the sweet wish of the customer that he would be like a real one - gray and cheerful! Can Russian Railways cars be funny? It was not possible to align normally and fill these cars. I made a huge tower on a 45 cm stand faster than these cars. Here is a photo:

Draw McQueen on a regular gingerbread and that's it!

Here, too, I sat and thought, but I need it. Thanks for the advice. I'll talk to the customer. Maybe agree to something simpler))

Made a house. I wanted to try pebbles and a window with a curtain on this house. Well, and also the tiles, they, however, did not turn out quite as I wanted. (My husband says that I have a strange color scheme, a cold background and flowers on it. But I think it's okay with that)

holgan, an interesting house .. Dimensions are not indicated))
The base asks for a little more, the roof is not right next to the walls ... there was not enough overlap?) ... the wall is not even ... but the ladder is class !!))
I would make the roof darker and maybe with a red tint ...

Yes, I flew with the foundation. The walls seem to be even, maybe the angle is like this.))
I'm somehow strange at it. According to the drawing, both the overflow and everything else are in order, but as in the finished form, everything is back to back.

holgan, on the pattern, take into account the thickness of the walls ... which walls will be front ... and the roof plus 1.5 cm for sure .. then it is better to file it, if that) ..

Thank you. I only added 1 cm on the roof. Therefore, the roof turned out like this.

Oh, girls, if you only knew how long I have dreamed of bringing my house to this Temka ... I understand everything: beauty is still far away, but dreams must come true, right? Do not blame me :)) Lera Sahara dough, house 10 cm.

I would like a roof slightly lower ... with an overlap ...)
Kinglet
pssaha, thanks, Tanyusha, these are ready-made molds, so I really relied on their roof Next time I will be an architect myself - I will definitely do it with an overlap :)

Girls, tell me! I really wanted to rehearse with the house. I never did it. Baked, Sahara dough. And for some parts, the tips are bent up. Why is this? I can't get the Japanese-style roof down
pssaha
floksovodik, Elena, or the temperature was higher than necessary, or overexposed for time in the oven ...
Sahara
floksovodik, Elena, did you accidentally forget to put the powder in the dough?


Added on Monday 03 Oct 2016 10:10 AM

binkawhat a variety! The church and flower house are nice! How did you make domes and round parts?
floksovodik
Sahara, Powder is sacred! I put everything down. But over time, maybe they distracted me. ATP for a tip. I'll try to redo it. Mine are waiting for the command to be devoured by marriage

binka, very bright and even large-scale works! I like the courage and obvious love for the work, but lack accuracy. Try to work with icing according to Eddie Spence's recipe (see page 1 of the topic), it should be thicker and whipped well enough, then the drawing will be more accurate and not blurry, and the rest is a matter of practice. The hand should not remain without work for a long time, otherwise it will lose skills, muscle memory.

Good luck to you!
binka
Vei Thank you! Will work))

My house was "built" by me a long time ago impromptu and in front of NG.
Glued without assistance, caramel got on your fingers and flowed along the walls, roof, etc.
But the grandchildren were happy. Old photos have been preserved, the recipe for honey dough and patterns at home are also somewhere.

DonnaRosa, this is a house! You can live in this)
Shyrshunchik
DonnaRosa, and what dimples. Is there any furniture inside the house?
DonnaRosa
Merri, ShyrshunchikWell, yes, I built a big house, but why waste time on trifles, there were gingerbread cookies in it: Christmas trees, bears, hares and all sorts of things. I built it for my grandchildren, for joy, not for an exhibition.

Now my boys are big. More than ten years have passed.
The little one looks like a grandmother, and the older one looks like his mother.
Little then was 4-4.5 years old. He was spinning around the house, it smells delicious honey, I asked if he wanted to try, suddenly the kid exclaimed with an expression: "How ?!" He had thought for a long time how to get into the house, then he pulled out gingerbread through a hole in the roof and put it back into the house, played and ate a piece of honey roof with chocolate sprinkles.
Let the childhood be remembered and the grandmother too.
When my son came to pick us up, he was taken aback: well, mom, you give! And the house, not even completely cold, was warm in places.

Sahara I made domes from foil and covered them with dough, although it is very laborious to take out the foil ((I sat with tweezers and a flashlight looking for the remains inside).
Sahara
binka, well, we are not looking for easy ways In any case, your labor costs have paid off with the pomp of the gingerbread structure!
Taranolka
Hands are already itching for the New Year. I could not stand it, started construction. Made houses only to the past ng, so do not judge strictly
I tried to make painted boards out of icing. In short, such a rough, uncomplicated version, without subtleties. The garland still goes along the side walls, but it was made at the same height, and it is not visible from under the roof (
Overall dimensions 10 × 10 × 14. Dough from Gerda. Stand 14 × 14.

Taranolka, Olya, an interesting house! it is only a pity that it showed only in one angle, I would like to see it better. The chimney is very neat, how did you make it? is it solid?
Taranolka
Lera, the four-piece pipe is glued. I just made the seams on the sides, and glued it with brown icing.
DonnaRosa
Taranolka, Cook early. It will harden to NG. Or is it not planned to be edible? It is a toy?
Taranolka
DonnaRosa, no, it will not get stale. Checked last year. And this is just the beginning. I plan to make 20 of them, so early and start.

It's all right Taranolka, I support! You can't do anything in a week.
Sahara
Taranolka, Ol, thanks for reminding me that you can glue it with brown icing, I kind of know how it comes to work with white glue.

The pipe looks cool if I have time to try to do just that.

I, too, are already starting a little to New Year's, there is not much time left, so it's time to start making 3D gingerbread.
Taranolka
Irina, Lera, in December and other troubles mouth full, right ?! And you will make the houses for the closet neatly packed and do not interfere already
