That's some great craftsmanship on the building. Thanks for posting.

Good Morning Everyone,

Thank you all last week for the nice contributions to the showcase.

I am starting to do the fine detailing on a house model. Here are some pictures. Let's see what you have been working on.

Alan, WOWSER!

The house is coming along nicely Alan.

Sirt the delay is totally understandable but it looks like your contract will be completed on schedule and under budget.

I've been working on a couple of Downtown Deco kits for phase 2 of my town.

Here is a pic of the TMB club layout's main street scene. This resides under our control tower and we have been working on the lighting as well as detailing the street and the building interiors. I'll try to get some pictures of the interiors in the coming weeks. One of our members wife is a photographer and she enhanced the sky to add some stars otherwise this is pretty much what our visitors see when viewing the layout  Steve

NOw that I bought these two at a great price...

I have to figure out what I am going to Kitbash with them.

Some new buildings for the layout:

As usual, everyone has great looking projects going on! I was busy at the bench all week but just don't have a lot to show for it. I did get the roof finished for the tractor repair shop and have started the process of painting detail castings (there are a lot of them). Still have a few odds and ends to complete on the building, need to finish the background in this area, weather the tractors, and landscape. It amazes me how much time can be taken by such a small area!

Nice track work!

 

 

I got a little more work done on the experimental sheet rock stone arch bridge.

Thanks. Nice for its time, not so much anymore. I've learned a few things since then. Wait till I finish the new street module.

James,

Thanks! The Oliver came from Toys3000.com. I had trouble finding one and forum member SouthernMike came to the rescue with a link to their site.

Wow, very impressive Pete!

Wow guys some great work this week!

Pete, these are some great structures, are they scratch built or are some kits? I really like them.

here is some work around the layout I have been completing.

Dave, the tattoo parlor blends in nicely with the WS store next door.  Nice paint job.

Pete, nice bunch of buildings.  Very nice job if you built them, scratch or kit.  Great score if you purchased them.

Joe, glad to see you found an Oliver.

Don, love the sheet rock wall and especially the arch

Rich, nice work with the retaining wall grade in between.  Tile and painter's tape?

All

I built all the structures in the post. Most are from kits but all have been modified to some degree.  I like to color outside of the lines...

The coal tipple below was scratch-built the coal dist business from a partially assembled kit I picked up.

Thank you for your kind words.

Thanks Coach! I have a bit more work before I can paint. I'm making note of changes and minor modifications as I go along.

These photographs show some very good modeling!

Rich,

This is so exciting to watch. Really some fantastic detail you're putting into your layout.
