realgone58 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 My HO plasticville gas station. Added blue for the overhang, and chrome foiled the stainless on the building. It's not done yet, some mild weathering is in store, as it's going on the road front for my HO scale trailer park, that is to be set in approx 1961.

Dr. Cranky Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Alan, those are all wonderful elements for the diorama. Hope to see more progress soon. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshaver Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Alan, it's been years since I saw one of these old Plasticville stations assembled . Great to see a childhood memory come back to life . Its amazing to see just how detailed these pieces were in relation to most other offerings in the era that this kit was origionally manufactured .

realgone58 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Thanks guys. Yes, I'll have some trash........plan on having an "abandoned and forgotton" section of the park too! These little plasticvilles were pretty well detailed. When I get started on the diorama, I'll post more pics. Right now I'm trying to figure out where I am going to put it! I plan to do it aobut 3 foot by 3 foot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raykreations Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 brings a tear to my eye...not just the beauty of the diorama, but gasoline being 28 cents a gallon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
