  1. Hi John, I like the Kadee pics, I use Kadee's but mainly No 5's or plug in's 17,18,19 or 20, really neat job mate.
  2. Evening Duncan, Well that's a good start, a bit like George T did on my Trebudoc Buildings, he recorded his efforts on the Trebudoc Thread, but starting way into it as it was rebuilt from an original Layout.
  3. Hi Duncan, yes although a vast majority would originally have been Thatch, don't for get as some rotted, got Mice or Rats or were struck by Fire, they would have been re done in an early Slate. Just a bit more variety for you.
  4. Hi Will, some great modelling there, I like the road, will you be adding a grass verg or hedging along side it to hide the join a bit? I did a similar one on our Clubs layouts.
  5. Hi Jaz, just called in for a look around, the Police House is looking really good, you make REAL MODELING look so easy. Hope your Dad's going to be O.K.
  6. Hi Richard, I've just caught up with this and your work around the Town and Lighting the Buildings is lovely, well done, great workmanship.
  7. Hi Adrian I'm really looking forward to the joining of the two Terminus's but will you still have a fiddle yard somewhere, as Mac Pryke did on the Berrow Branch?
  8. Its all down to my bad Grandma, I meant 'inventiveness' hahhahah thanks for guiding me in the right direction, and again well done Al.

    Well quite a bit done today, one way or another, firstly some Brownie Point from SWMBO, I did promise at the start of this move that I would make the garden and Shed look a lot better than it was. Its cost me some megga dough but its looking worth it now, and most importantly Dee;s a Happy Bunny. Firstly as it was. And as it is now. I then spent a couple of hours in the Potting Shed tidying up ready for Lee tomorrow, we have the Guttering to put up on the neighbours side and then see what time we have left. I have offered the frame up the end frame, (this came out of the old Den) and one side member, once fitted the Layout will rest on top. Its getting there, but I daren't show you the other side of the Shed, hahah

    Cheers Jock, Club was last night, its a general Club night on a Tuesday when all the groups are present, G Scale, O Gauge, N Gauge and OO, but on a Thursday its mainly the OO gang working on our big Layout to get it ready for the open weekend. I am really taking things easy these days, I'm off back out to the Potting Shed in a mo, but just an Hour and then another sit down, little and not often now as opposed to Bull in a China Shop, You take care mate and catch up later.

    Morning all, its a lovely morning here today so some more bits will be sorted today in the Potting Shed, but first a bit of gardening though. Later I want to try and get the book cases in place and the frame timbers ready to go up on Saturday when Lee comes up. Normally I would have just cut them by now but I have found moving the heavy boxes over the last few days quite tiring. I can now almost see the wood for the trees, and I think I must have the warmest Shed on the Planet, hahahah.
  13. Nice work there Al, your putting us all to shame with your inventfullness (thought that was a real word!), Great stuff, looking forward to seeing the coaches next.

    Hi all, well another successful day in the Potting Shed, I have filled 3 Medium Plastic containers with the empty wagon boxes that was originally in 4 cardboard boxes, (should have done it this way before the move) and then filled a draw in one of the dressing table units with FULL boxes of wagons and coaches. I have also emptied 3 boxes of buildings and put them into draws and cupboards. Then finally after a chat with George this morning I have decided to store the spray booth under the Layout, this give a neater area by the door. I takes about 3 to 4 minutes to get it out and set it up so no problem.

    Hi Mate, No thanks, holes mean drafts, spiders, ants, bugs, slugs and goodness knows what. The vent by the door will suffice, 90% of the time I will be using Acrylics and the only real time I will need it is to blow cleaner through the gun. The amount of time I will be weathering will be minimal. possibly once or twice a week at most.
  18. Morning Shaun, loving that Chapel mate, that looks so real, the Ivy is so effective.
  19. Morning mate, any more photos due soon please, I need some devine inspiration for the next stage?
  20. Station building's looking good Ray, have a god Show at the weekend.
  21. Cheers Mike, that's made my night, I can go to bed now a happy bunny, hahaha
  22. Hi Duncan, this was done with Hanging Basket liner.
  23. Hi Mike, Jason has it right, you don't actually need any, but if you are having some please keep it subtle.
  24. Hi Shaun, some great modeling on the Warehouse mate, love the sheer scale of the thing, fantastic.
