S FRONT STREET DIVISION

Yesterday was spent painting the fiddle yard and printing some crash barriers. The barriers where found on thingiverse as 28mm scale, so a slight rescale and their really good, painted in chrome effect paint, which they well be weathered down at a later pointIMG_2008.jpegIMG_2009.jpegi drawn and printed the tin building Wednesday and today Ive put it together , this is my largest print so far and with help from Jordan added more scenic base to exposed areas and currently figuring out the pavement slabs. I’ve for the time being drawn them on. Tonight I’ll be painting the curbs ready for tomorrom.IMG_2010.jpegIMG_2011.jpegIMG_2012.jpegon an amusing side when I drew up the tin building i did the side and front,I started drawing the roof, today I’ve realised i didn’t finish it nor printed it. hoping I’ve got time to get it sorted.
 
Telford went very well. The write up I did helped , almost every person who look at the layout was reading it.

I did manage to print the roof on the tin building but ran out of time to glue it all together so it was placed at the show and just before the show started I glued on the crash barriers.IMG_6696.jpegIMG_6689.jpegIMG_6693.jpegIMG_6680.jpeg

My new storage boxes where really good stock stayed together and it was much easier to find them, although some people used them as tables to put items on top.image.jpgand at the end of the show I found these a one of the traders, their corgi 1:64 lorries. Wrong time period and continent but useful and for only £15 why not.

This is certainly progressing well and a lovely example of S Scale modelling for people to see.
Are Starsky and Hutch off somewhere while their "motor" cools down??!
Nice....

The cabs, definitely wrong!! The tanker trailer, re-named might be ok, especially as the axles are set quite far back in American tradition. The curtainsider - unfortunately although invented in 1969, that was this side of The Pond; they weren't introduced to the American market until the 1990s, so won't fit your late 70s/early 80s Era.

I’ll do my usual method and cut it to suite
