"Class" Peterbilt Great Gatsby era

[olsbooks]

There is some minor straightening to do here and there and more weathering on the fountain is needed (all loosely placed thankfully)...amazing how pictures reveal flaws the eye cannot see...but otherwise say this one is nearly done..

The perimeter border/frame is still under deliberation.  Meanwhile, the (thus far unsuccessful) search for suitable 1/25 figures dressed in 1920's garb continues.  Once those are found, only then will this thing be truly done. 

The only major "failure" not easily fixed in my less than humble opinion is thinking fiber optics would suffice for the porch lights. The "filament" diameter chosen was far too small. Maybe a pocket laser channeled through them would make them visible?  Anyway, attached is the inspiration photo.

Hopefully the ability to continue watching in coming months will continue though posts may be sparse.

Peace

Looks great outdoors, JC........ the front entrance to the building, the truck and the fountain are all very well done. You must be pleased with this one.

Thank you.  If Yordan did the landscaping and you did the lighting and photography....

That's it ! ......... You build the models, Yordan does the grassy watery stuff and I photograph the finished project with some creative lighting...... teamwork!
