Medieval Style House Assembly
Medieval Style House Assembly
By Gary N.
I am not professional at card stock model-making, I just enjoy it as a hobby. This model was created
based on typical medieval buildings I’ve seen in internet photos. The scale is 1” = 4’ which is a bit off
from the tabletop gaming standard, but still works well with 28mm figures.
Some minor changes to the model were made after these instructions were completed. The model is
not a complex one, so construction should go well.

Assembly
These instructions assume you’ve had experience with constructing card stock models before. You know
what supplies you need to build it (among them, 120lb card stock paper (my personal preference)), and
all the parts need to be cut out, of course. Don’t forget to edge the pieces before attaching them!
The 2nd floor front wall extends out beyond the 1st floor, so fold the two dashed lines accordingly and
bend all the white tabs back. Note that the red long
dash line is folded forward. There are 5
Beams/Supports that will be glued to the front
overhang later.
I outlined the tabs for this photo to show how the tabs
should look from inside the Front and Right Walls
Step 3: BACK WALLS 1st and 2nd flr
Bend back the white tabs and glue the Back Wall to the
Right Wall.
Glue the Left Wall to the Front Wall first, and then to the
Back Wall, making sure everything is lined up.
Here the Left Wall has been attached to the Front Wall with
connection to the Back Wall coming up next
Step 5: CHIMNEYS
Step 6: ROOF
Fold the red dashed center line and then fold over & glue those “wooded” sections to the underside of
the Roof. Cut out the two spots marked so. Don’t forget to edge! Set the roof aside. The Roof will go on
after the next step.
Step 7: FOUNDATION
The Foundation gets attached now in order to keep the model squared during installation of the Roof.
Gluing the model to the Foundation is straight-forward, but good luck, anyway.
After the model has had a minute to dry,
insert the small Chimney through the Roof
opening until the black lines on it align with
the Roof “shingles.” Now glue the Chimney in
place from the underside.
Step 8: BEAMS/SUPPORTS
This picture shows the model after the small Chimney, Foundation, underside of the overhang on the Front
and the Roof have been installed Wall. Place them evenly.
Both of these items are easy to assemble. Assemble and then attach
them at the back of the house. There are light markings in the
Foundation showing their locations.
Step 10: HORSE TROUGH & HITCHING POST
