N gauge Vegetables etc

[Andy Brooks]

Heya people.

Just wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on how to make n gauge size vegetables like beans, potato plants, tomato plants and carrots. Also how to make a washing line with clothes on and off.

Thanks

Andy

For the clothes line, use thin, straight wire. Anything else moves too much, and will not hang properly. For clothes, cut out from tissue paper, or Rizlas papers. Add some water colour, as required. Wire can also be used for bean sticks, etc. Find suitable flock, etc to form plants. Alternatively, Noch do a range of N scale flowers and vegetables, but not cheap.

Thanks Ian.. I will have a look at Noch. Will fishing line work as washing line

The trouble with the Noch n-gauge vegetables and flowers is that most of them are way over scale, their cabbages would look at home on an O gauge layout., brands and tomatoes are more suited to OO gauge.
