Gary Smith Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) Hi all, I've not posted in this section before but I have looked at every page and the work I see here is INCREDIBLE. I don't really know anyone around here interested in models. I love this web site. Really cool to see a community of folks you can listen to, learn from and see everyone"s ideas. And again, INCREDIBLE ! Thought I would show a few pictures of something I have been working on in the winters. All comments, criticisms and suggestions are welcome. Pat me on the back or punch me in the gut. I can take it. Enjoy Edited March 14, 2015 by Gary Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramfins59 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 That is one of the best, well-used, garage dioramas that I've ever seen. The grunge and clutter, the wall insulation, the wood or coal stove...... everything is very well done and very realistic looking. You must have a LOT of time in on this.

The grunge and clutter, the wall insulation, the wood or coal stove...... everything is very well done and very realistic looking. You must have a LOT of time in on this. Thank you very much. I made the wall insulation by laying out my pattern out in a graphics program and printing it out on beige letterhead paper. Spray adhesive was used to attach to some pink felt. Took the sheet and crumpled it a few times and cut it into strips. Very easy I made the stove from a piece of 3/4 inch plastic water line and a straw from McDonalds. Yes I have a lot of time in it. My cold weather project. 5 winters so far. Thank you again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
