 Here are some pics of models I have been working on since my last post. None are yet fully complete but are as complete as they can be without a final destination for each one. 












This pictures of two derelict and in the process of being demolished houses. They will form a very impressive cameo on a layout one day.


This is a project that I have not worked on for a number of years, however it will be a static diorama of an old goods yard repurposed as a scrap yard. Of course, inspired by Woodham`s  Barry scrapyard. I have elected to produce some very detailed scrap locos, which are based on Airfix/ Dapol kits, these have become more detailed as time goes by, and with the advent of 3D printing I have now turned to slowly producing very detailed parts to enhance these locos. 

 




Nostalgia time again. This time building a super detailed update using the Superquick country pub.

 



This is an adaptation of a laser cut kit made by Fair price models. They are basic kits that are designed to be finish with your choice of materials etc. However I have changed this one more than was probably envisaged, giving the roof a cornice and parapet. Slater's Flemish bond, with individual bricks painted. Its not yet finished, but the time consuming work is done. I will probably 3d print some chimneys for it as do not have the right style or number required for this.
