Title: Wood cutters Shack
Post by: wesley on December 08, 2014, 10:49:58 PM

Hi guys

Here is a small O scale diorama i completed some time ago. Its a kit produced by Sierra West Scale Models. The whole structure is board on board construction and the wood is coloured with various chalks and ink stains.

The castings come with the kit.

Let me know your thoughts.

Regards
Wes

Thanx Wesley.  I used to think I am doing ok... but you changed that perspective quite quickly!!!  lol   I am not particularly good with structures, and generally prefer rolling stock...   but I do try it all... lol

I will post a few pics of work I have done...  just need to figure out where would be the most appropriate place for it...
