We will suppose that the model is to represent the Temple of Theseus, at Athens, which was built by Cimon, the son of Miltiades. In the first place we must obtain the necessary dimensions, and then reducing the number of feet to fractional parts of an inch, form a scale suitable for carrying out the whole- A piece of wood of the necessary size is procured, the plan marked out in pencil, and the ground on which it stands imitated in cork; by cutting away the parts that are not required, with a sharp penknife and adding others with glue. The fleor of the temple is now to be glued on with common glue, for we should remark that the liquid glue does not dry quick enough for cork modelling, and is not so good as the old plan; the sides and ends are formed of cork sheets, marked with a lead-pencil to represent the blocks of stone; and ruined and broken parts imitated, by pricking the cork with a blunt penknife or needle. The frieze representing the battle between the Centaur and Lapithae, and the metopes in mezzo-relievo, containing a mixture of the labours of Hercules and Theseus, should be drawn upon the sheets of cork according to scale, and coloured with a little lamp-black and raw sienna, to represent the subject intended. If the scale is small, or if the model admits of it, the groups may be neatly carved with a sharp penknife from the cork, which has been previously outlined with a pencil. The next thing we shall have to do, is to strengthen the interior of the model, and this is done by glueing small pieces of cork, at irregular intervals at the angles formed by the junction of any parts; these are put on the inside, and lastly, the roof is affixed. Any parts that require to be coloured, must be touched up with varnish or water colours, and lichen, etc, affixed with mucilage where it is requisite.
