About eighteen months ago I read WD 143 and thought to myself how fun it would be to make the Coaching Inn, and so i did. And it took me the whole of the eighteen months! Admittedly I did a little bit here and a little bit there: some cutting one day, some glueing another. Little by little my Coaching Inn came together. I don’t know that Rob Hooper did any more of these Modelling Workshop articles, and I don’t know that the person who edited this article had any experience of writing or following modelling articles, because there were bits that were hard to follow.
