Mercman Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) Been sloshing this one around for awhile. What do you think?? As if I don't have enough projects going on!!!!!!! Edited October 7, 2012 by Mercman
Dr. Cranky Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 Another cool project, Junior. Love the name of it too.
Mercman Posted March 18, 2012 Author Posted March 18, 2012 It's HO 1/87th. the Merc is a Hot Wheels, and the Reaper figure came from Prieser. Don't know who made the building I bought as is.
Eshaver Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Why not Junior, shoot why do dioramas always have to conform to a "Narrow set " of values ? Ed Shaver
Mercman Posted April 7, 2012 Author Posted April 7, 2012 Got a base made for our mascot. With these 2 guys also around I don't think anyone would take it. Possible logo for the shop.
Draggon Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 The reaper standing on that pedestal out front is enough to keep most everyone away. Those that made it through then could deal with those biker dudes.
Mercman Posted April 9, 2012 Author Posted April 9, 2012 Got the sign up. Soon will be open for business.
Mercman Posted April 15, 2012 Author Posted April 15, 2012 Made a new garage door using twist ties to give it a corrugated look. Just needs some weathering now when I get it all done. Also cut the floor, and started the office area. This will be the only part seen through the windows. Then I decided to open up the front door. This will be ajar as if they are either opening, or closing the shop.
Mercman Posted April 16, 2012 Author Posted April 16, 2012 Picked up some detail items for the shop. Possible shop truck. Or maybe this one.
GTMust Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 There's some really neat stuff in those blister pacs.......! Tony
Mercman Posted May 9, 2012 Author Posted May 9, 2012 Today I decided to go full bore on this one. The garage alley will get the treatment. Stay tuned for updates.
Mercman Posted May 10, 2012 Author Posted May 10, 2012 Is this 1:87 or HO? Pretty cool so far! Yes it is.
Mercman Posted May 15, 2012 Author Posted May 15, 2012 Need opinions, should I leave it as is the original building or add the addition. This is looking from the top, as it would be 2-2 1/4 in's high in the front.
GTMust Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 I say go for it........ if you've got room on the street. A custom shop needs lots of work space! Tony
Mercman Posted May 26, 2012 Author Posted May 26, 2012 Progress is forthcoming. Got the base cut from plexiglass. Mockup of the walls. Then cut the doors.
Mercman Posted June 4, 2012 Author Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) Started on the interior of the new shop this weekend. Here are the work counters and storage lockers. Decided to have a few open drawers also. Everything thing is plastruc, and basswood. Also got this assembled for the shop. Nice little kit highly recommended. Ramps can be up or down.

Mercman Posted October 7, 2012 Author Posted October 7, 2012 Been awhile since I touched this one. Got the streets in today. In the background is Mr. Roger's part 2
Mercman Posted October 10, 2012 Author Posted October 10, 2012 Thanks Tony still has along way to go.
