graham Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Well what can I say Tis, the buildings look absolutely brilliantly. I think we have all got poxy little rooms and cannot seem to have enough space to put these layouts in. :) :) You are certainly getting some therapy instead of pushing that scania around the countryside.

Funny you should say that Graham, I was just showing her indoors the photo's on here and read out the responses. .. ... Her reply went something like this. .. "Yeah thats great Tristan, just a shame you gave up your f***ing job to finish it." Not strictly true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 :o :o :o :o Absolutely fooken amazing! Get a move on man, I need to see this finished off! Well if that isn't inspiration I don't know what is!!! :D :D Very nice your workshop garage is looking great and i like the matching barn nice to show that off at toytrac 2007 Thats the plan mate, I'd be very pleased to have this on show. If not as a finished layout then at least as individual pieces. great work Tris, makes me feel i should do more on mine!!. :D Did you plaster that roof as well, all at once on in sections?? PM me a process and materials??, i should only have a small area to do but its just trying to get into it The roof for this is Plastruct/EMA Ben, cut into sections to fit. If ou look you can see the joins in it. Not an easy tsk for a shed that is lonker than the sheets they supply, you can;t avoid joins in it. Still, maybe another lick of paint will fill the joins in better. Plaster is simple mate, a box of Focus polyfilla is about ?7 and that is pretty well all you need to by, apart from some thing ply to use as the roof boards - 0.8mm ply on these. Look back through this topic and I am sure I wrote a detailed guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FB Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 i wish it was that easy!!! whats the original colour before you painted it???, should be ok for the house and shed roof then. Going from making the trusses to just slapping it on the building and getting it done now :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 If u skip the trusses you must stick these onto some thin ply, get it in any good rc plane shop. Its grey anyway but I painted it 'pebble grey' to match the workshop. Its Crown Indulgance I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
