Bring a touch of Victorian grandeur to your HO layout or diorama with this finely modeled front façade of a Second‑Empire mansard house. The piece captures the essential character: a steep mansard roof with fish‑scale shingles and dormers, a single brick chimney on the left, a projecting full‑height bay, and a four‑column entrance porch that supports a balcony above. Decorative cornice dentils, bracket-like corbels, and roof cresting are included to read well at 1:87 scale. The model is supplied as one HO (1:87) master STL; a glazing plane and README with print and scale conversion suggestions are included. The lower foundation was simplified due to photographic occlusion so the façade is ideal for mounting to a custom base or integrating into a street row. Recommended for dioramas, model railroading layouts, historical displays, and kitbashing projects. Print recommendations: for FDM, orient with the back to the plate and add small supports under the porch entablature and balcony; for resin, use light supports on the cresting and chimney and consider 0.05–0.1 mm layers for highest detail.
Available railroad scales: Z (1:220), N (1:160), HO (1:87.1), S (1:64), O (1:48)
