Down the station, in the morning...
...see the trains all in a row! (or not in this case!)
Well with other projects on the workbench it's been a while since I posted any updates on the Rose Hill P4 project, my 2010 Challenge entry - well it's not going to be finished but things are progressing still, albeit very slowly.
The Pacer is coming along but most effort has gone into 'finishing' (for now) the station building. This is a 80% scaled version of the real building at Rose Hill, in length, so has a few comprises but I think it really captures the character of the prototype and I'm really pleased with it!
The building is scratchbuilt in plasticard, using Slaters embossed sheets, various plastrut sections and some thin wire section along with various plasticard offcuts. It's painted and weathered with Humbrol enamels and I'm 95% finished with it - it still needs some fine details adding, and touching up here and there!
The signs and posters are custom made - drawn in Adobe Illustrator and printed on photo paper before being cut out and applied with Superglue - I'm particularly pleased with these! Anyone who wants a set I've got 2 spare sets of posters and signage, suitable for any Northern branded station!
Anyway enough waffle, here are the snaps:
I'm really pleased. Any questions or comments are welcome as usual
