Section Houses

These little guys are section houses for the track gang to reside in.  This is about as far as I take these until they have a final resting place.  I knocked these out in about 8 hours, not used to structures going so fast.

The finished Co-op

Well I blitzed the Co-op so it will be ready to be judged at the NMRA show tomorrow.  I am a little scared to have them officially judged, if they do poor I will try not to take it personally and use it to better my self as a modeler.  Enjoy the pictures and let me know what you think.

Farmer's Supply #2

These are a few pictures of the finished M.S Butler Farmer's Supply.  This building along with the Newton County Co-op and Junction City Station will be entered in the NMRA show on November 1st and 2nd.

Please enjoy.

Farmer's Supply

New little building that I am working on for the "A" module.  We are going to start bench work in the very near future so these will all have homes soon.

 

Co-op #2

Just adding a picture of the almost finished Co-op.

Co-op

I put the coaling tower off to the sidelines for a bit so I can begin work on the Co-op.  Not too much done as of yet, mostly the main structure and the base coat of paint with the initial weathering.

Coaling Tower

Im tired of waiting to start the co-op so I moved on for now and planted the seeds for the coaling tower.  I decided the best way to make it look like concrete is to cast it out of plaster.  This is a first for me but it seems to be moving okay.  I reinforced the plaster in the same way you would concrete.  I used strips of plastic styrene as re-bar and it worked well.  So until I have more done.
