RMweb Premium The White Rabbit Posted September 10, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 10, 2015 Allan - where did you get the interior ornamental railing from? It looks ideal for a model of a bandstand or ornamental fencing for a model a friend's musing about building. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, there's several variations including some really amazing park gates. Their catalogue is an absolute must if you're going to get serious about architectural modelling. If they don't have it, nobody else will either. Check these out. All Scalink windows, doors and balconies. Cheers.

RMweb Premium The White Rabbit Posted September 11, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 11, 2015 Thanks Allan - I must have been away when you originally built that row. I'll have a look at their range. I have bought from them a few years ago but that was leaves & barb wire etches, so time to revisit their catalogue! Thanks.

Sweven Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Superb. Great level of 'wonk' in that cafe roof! The ivy up the walls and the small hedges really add to it as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
