Dan's Treacle Mining and Refining
No construction pics for this one. It's a bash of some old (40 plus years?) MDC Roundhouse plastic walls, doors and windows with a few touches of my own. This will connect to the mine outlet for which I've added an interior gallery. This little structure has partial interior detail and lighting. I put in a lot of time colouring individual stones but the sunlight has washed them out in the pics.

I need to put a bit more glue under the lead flashing. |

You can see Dan's (daddy's) coat hanging in the hall. I made this by sawing up and carving an HO body. A gruesome task! |

Oh! That big red chimney will need shortening, It stands above the backscene and will be a problem. |
What an interesting structure. So many angles and textures.
ReplyDeleteYes, the roof took a lot of trial and error and test fitting. I'm sure there will be a mathematical formula to compute the dormer type roof angles from the main roof pitch but I dunno what it is and was a complete dummy at maths! I've had to shorten the big chimney as it was proud of the backdrop height. I've put some rudimentary detail inside and a micro LED so the girls will have lots of lights on the layout to turn on and off.
ReplyDeleteThe lights will really add fun for them. I really enjoy lighting effects too.
DeleteThe pre wired micro leds make lighting easier as they fit anywhere.
