Micro Kits

Way back in April I bought some 144 scale furniture kits from SDK Miniatures. These have been on my to do list for far too long.

Yesterday afternoon, I grabbed a few and read over the directions carefully, then gave it a shot.


The kitchen kit was moderately rough. I eneded up painting the handles on with a toothpick. My paint job is not perfect, but given the size I'm very pleased.

The sofa and chair kit was a breeze. Tacky glue and very pointed tweezers are a must for these tiny bits.

The rubber plant and sunflowers were probably the most time consuming. You have to let the layers of leaves dry completely before doing the next row. Trust me, it's worth the wait. When you knock off a lower row that wasn't quite dry, you'll wish you'd waited :)


I'm very pleased with the instructions,and quality of the kits. Anything that looks out of place is my fault. (Not to mention how difficult it is to get a good shot of anything in 1:144)

SDK does offer their items already made, but you get a much nicer price if you buy the kit. Besides, isn't that what this hobby is all about anyway, making your own?!
