Sunday Scenic Showcase December 23, 2018

Excellent as always Alan! Thank you for this thread each week.

Andy

Happy Scenic Sunday All!  Great work Alan and thanks for keeping the Showcase rolling.  Always enjoy finding the details in your wonderful work.

I continue slow progress on the turp/paint/peel technique for my new structure.  Three sides down, one to go.  Still have the doors, roof, and dreaded windows to complete. Board to death  

Throwing up some oldies but goodies from the wayback machine.  These are from the old shelf layout ...

Alan, wonderful work as always.

That’s fabulous Alan!!! 

Beautiful Alan

I just finished a wood water tower. The wood I use is naturally dark. All I need do is oil it. The tank is 25 inch plastic laminated with wood. The strapping is 20 mil plastic and the roof is a 20 mil plastic cone (technique I learned from Alan Graz)

Alan fabulous work. I have try build a first S.B.R. -woodchip hopper, earlier that car was a Norfolk Southern hi-cube car.

Very nice Joe. 

Thank you all for the nice compliments

Erik, you know I'm a huge fan of your work, but the power lines look wrong to me. They're spaced awfully far apart especially for the background like that. Otherwise it's a perfect shot.

I especially like what looks like a WW2-era 8-inch howitzer on the first flat car. Who made that, was it a kit?
