I've been putting finishing touches on these two structures and surrounding "junke" for a few days after having a far too busy November. Each building is on a relatively small 1 inch thick pink foamboard and fits puzzle like into the layout.WoodcutterShack

    Wow Carl! Outstanding. Weathering is spot on, scenery, clutter, everything looks terrific!!!
  • SteveCuster
    Very nice job Carl. I'm especially impressed with acetylene tanks, the shinier exposed metal looks so real.

    It looks really good

    Hey Carl,

    Nice color variations on all your details. I also like those spools. What material did you use for the black cable..or is that part of the casting that you painted?
  • KKarnsKKarns
    Wonderful work Carl. All your details look terrific and well placed. I'm with Alan, those cable spools are extremely well done. Wood coloring on both castings and structure...love it..Ken

    Thanks for all of the positive feedback. Building these kits is great fun. All of the paints used are from Brett's SW paint kit. The cable spools were primed with a rattle can tan color and weathered with pastels the same as coloring wood for the structures. I used the metallic black color and dry brushed silver to get more sheen on the cable.

    I agree with everyone here Carl. Your modeling and weathering are just right. I really like the maul, garbage can, and cable spools. Just perfect. Thanks for sharing!

    Going back through older threads and I tripped across this one by Carl Rowe.
    I missed it the first time around but so glad I've been able to study these pics today. There are many great facets to these pics, the small, subtle care in some areas is wonderful and easily over looked. I studied them for quite some time and kept finding hidden gems. Beyond the obvious. Great modeling.

    Karl A,

    Thanks for bringing this build forward again.
    Another of Carl Rowe's fine builds for us to study and enjoy.
    Nice how Brett has catalogued builds for us to reference: 71 HO Scale Builds, 81 O-Scale Builds and 36 Completed Builds to be found in the left margin of the Forum Page.

    Later, Dave S Tucson, AZ
