1st Government House of Sydney Australia, Opened Dec 1788, Demolished around the 1860’s. The 1st Permanent residence for the new Governor after the Colapsable Canvas Tent structure, It had several renovations during its time before being demolished with still sound foundations.
Model was constructed from researched material inclduing photos of the foundation remains, a piece of reconstructed wall, assortment of drawings, period Paintings, written descriptions, pictures of a scale model, etc. And was modeled originaly as part of the Virtual Songlines Project.
This was one of my first models when I first came on board this project back in late 2019. I would like to improve on this model one day and posssibly include an interor, also. Doors are seperate though currently part of the model. The Interor spaces are currently a dark grey only. The reason it has no Glass is due to the fact when first built, The building had no glass at first, till the colony could source the resources to make glass.
