Original name: Cite Gallo-Romaine de Glanum

Scale 1:200

Paper model showing Cite Gallo-Romaine de Glanum, made in France by L'Instant Durable in 1994

A precision three-dimensional paper model of the reconstructed town of Glanum, unique in the world. The cut-out model is built to a scale of 1:200 and consists of 520 pieces printed on 30 colored sheets of 30 × 22 cm card. When assembled, the finished model measures 44 × 84 cm at the base and stands 15 cm high.

The book includes a historical overview and description of the ruins, accompanied by photographs and historical engravings of the site. Step-by-step assembly instructions are provided in English, French, German, and Italian, with detailed construction notes and illustrations for each building.

Finally, the 2 large pieces of the puzzle are glued together, it wasn't too difficult, although the joints are a bit noticeable, maybe they can be masked a bit later with PVA glue and paint. Next, we can move on to the houses of the residential area.

Hope this wasn't at base of Mount Vesuvius. Too nice for that kind of fate.

There needs to be more life in the place! But may be some little figures would exceed the timeframe of the contest.

  @bughunter Yes, the city looks empty now. And the set actually has flat, one-sided figures and a few trees. I'll add the figures later, maybe outside of the contest.
