Great work - looks fantastic. Cheers Darius

Contoured 3D printing effect on the cab roof (right)sanded and smoothed down and re-primed (left). Bogie bearing holes drilled out to accept cylindrical brass bearings. Once “balanced” the bearings are superglued in place. 10mm dia. wheels fitted. The quality of the printed body shells is very good. The cab roof is the only cleaning up really needed. Basic painting of driving and trailer coach completed. Cheers Darius

Etched brass kit from Langley Miniature Models. You get quite a lot of tables and chairs… Maybe I’ll build a cafe… Cheers Darius

Bundle arrived today Cheers Darius

Third pair of terraced completed. Cheers Darius

Thanks Leslie. The Scalescenes kits are good value for money and easy to adapt/modify. Their brick print effect is also more realistic, in my view, than Metcalfe for example, and you don’t have the exposed card corners. Populating the back yards is the fun part. Cheers Darius

The space hopper is made of blue tack and two bits of wire for the horns before painting orange. The “face” was drawn in MS Paint before shrinking down and printing on clear decal paper. Still a bit soft - ok as long is you don’t prod it too much. Cheers Darius

The company effectively folded a couple of years ago, but has recently been resurrected by others to produce high end O Gauge models. Full saga here I have some of their OO Gauge LNER Coronation coaches. Very nice but they need very large radius curves or major fettling to run smoothly. Being all metal, they are also very heavy so need a seriously powerful loco to drag them around. Display Cabinet material really. Cheers Darius

First of about twelve terraced house pairs under construction. Built from the Scalescenes download, print and glue onto cardboard kit. Roofing tomorrow. Cheers Darius
