I am pleased to announce that I am now an OGR Forum sponsor.    My plan is to post both finished buildings on the appropriate forums,   and progress photos of buildings that I am making for my clients on the scenery and structures forum.   You can now find a hot link to my Model Building Services web page in my signature.

I build both kits and scratch built prototype buildings.

  I have posted some of my buildings in earlier posts which you can find by clicking on the magnifying glass icon, search Stu Gralnik, click on my name,  then  click on activity.

Here is a sampling of some of my earlier posts:12038448_983899711668286_4897352012661703066_nameritowntall034CEMENT8934charlotte5166coalbreaker8747maridianIMG_7931stonewallhotel6702w

Thank you Hot Water.   If you and others that have some of my work can post pictures of them on your layout that would be great.   I always enjoy seeing them in there final spots on the layouts.

Stu,

Stu, Since you have requested seeing your work in situ, I dug out...

Here it is moved into a different neighborhood, at one time...IMG_1829 several photos I have of your work on my layout. Back almost a decade ago when I re-did my layout for the um-teenth time, I could not resist having two of your structures in Moon Township.

All these years, the buildings you made for me have remained sturdy and in the best of condition - unchanged, really - though they have been man-handled and re-positioned numerous times.

Here are photos of one of them, the "Miller Brothers Manufacturing" building, which reminded me of many small manufacturing-type businesses in my hometown in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area back in the 40's and 50's, which themselves dated back to the late 1890's and early 1900's, it seemed to me. At least, that was "the look" I was after, and you surely provided it to me.

And let me say to everybody that Sty Gralnik has always been a cordial, convivial, and straight-forward gentleman with whom to do business.

Frank, 

Thanks for posting the pictures. This was one of  many that I made from the painted lady house kits.  I have two versions on my layout.  Because I only used the sides and backs I have a lot of the fronts left. Any one interested in a bunch of painted lady attached row  houses as a  flat?

Stu
