Alan

Your work past and present continues  to amaze.  I made a bit more progress on my large building completing the larger of the exposed sides and installing LED's on the underside.

Just amazing!

Fantastic work, Alan! 

----> L.I.Train: is this building of the same family?

Just completed two gantry cranes. The long gantry crane has one stationary and one moving side. Both sides of the smaller crane move. There is a wheel mechanism on the motor house that will allow one to raise and lower the block. I have been using YCC-202 single sheath blocks and like them a lot. They are about $25 a piece but they are well made and beautiful.

JPV:

What is your technique for the mortar?

Thanks

Joe

Thanks to all!

Joe---> bricks and mortar are only textures from SKETCHUP with the cut out for the windows on a A4 sheet of paper. Between each "concrete"  frame there is less than a A4 sheet so, no join!

I cliked on the "post reply"  too quickly!

These sheets are glued on 3mm cardboard with the same openings of course; all the windows come from Tichy TG. I made all my buildings this way.

Thanks also to those who click on the "like button"!

I am amazed - it looks so real!

Again excellent work.

Joe

Thanks again, Joe!

The only more difficult thing is to adapt the colours according to the photos I can find on the web; I'm to far to see some of your buildings or warehouses in front of me!!!
