Dairy Transfer Station

Ron,

  Very nice. My only suggestion would be maybe just adding a few milk cans.  Nice looking milk trucks, too. 

Tom 

Very nice job Ron.

Alan Graziano

Very nice! 

I'm making most of my new module sidings using 2rail after the switch since power units never use the freight cars spots. Enhances the scenes.

Great work sir!!

Great scene Ron,   I think you nailed it.... Possibly some subtle weathering to tone down the top of the loading platform with some powders, or pastels.  Could be the light reflecting off of it in the photo, the rest of the weathering in the scene is really well done.  Also, I really  like your idea for the thistle weeds ! 

Great work!

Beautiful work Ron - I like the block wall a lot.

Joe

Thanks for the encouragement fella's.

Tom... I added some milk and ice.  It's all I have for now.  I will have to get some more when I go to Allentown Spring Thaw.

Chris A... You are right, I did not touch the platform.  This evening I went over it lightly with my weathering mixture (Grey latex and Brown water color paint mixed together).  I brush it on, wait 30 seconds and wipe it off lightly.  

Then your comment about chalk reminded me that many many years ago when I first got started, I purchased some weathering powder from a Hobby shop in San Diego while I was on travel there.  So I opened that up and brushed some on.  Do you think it needs more?

They are Corgi.  I got them on eBay.

Nice job on that scene, Ron.  The weathering helps it, too. 

FYI, Berkshire Valley also makes some nice milk cans (you have to paint them).  There are a couple of Arttista figures that fit in well.

  Every building needs a trash can. Maybe an messed up old milk can on it's side, next to it.

   If it's hot out folks/kids might be hanging about ready to catch a cool breeze out the doors or congregating at a flaw in an iced building.  "I was there". Stick me under the wood deck, cool steam rolling down onto us through the timber gaps

A smoke unit and sliced gaps under the doors? 

Well done, fellows!

Peter

Very nice job Ron

Weathering looks good but milk trucks look too clean maybe just a little flat finish to kill some of the shine!

Now that's what I'm talking about. Excellent.
