I have recently replaced the platform lights hopefully giving more of a western region feel.

The post was cut from cardboard repurposed from old sketchbooks. I have found this material gives a good representation of the concrete used for these 1940/50's lamp posts.

The lamp fitting was turned out of some laminated plastikard, mounted in a mini drill and turned to shape.

A small piece of brass wire creates the fitting . The post is painted a humbrol wood colour and weathered with powders to create the concrete look. 20210408_123613.jpg.c28d60b480e61166335048b1ebc6f640.jpg

The previous lamp posts were revamped to create under canopy strip lights.
