I am making a winter version of a Lionel scenic plot for my Christmas tinplate layout. You can see this in the last photo. Still to come are hedges, walkways, fences, steps, snow.
This would make a nice step-by-step how-to article for the magazine, Will. I would need a series of hi-res step-by-step photos (plai, contrasting white or light background would be best) along with some finished photos to show the final product on the layout. Would be ideal for our next Oct. or Dec. issue, or even before, and you would get a couple of hundred bucks if it is published. Think it over and let me know if you are interested.
Thanks, Allan, that's a very nice offer. When would the deadline be for one of those issues?
In effect, you pretty much set the deadline. Once you have an article ready to be submitted to me, I will work it into the schedule for an upcoming issue. Since the issues are planned several months in advance of their release date, I would just say that the sooner you get an article to me, the sooner it can be added to the publishing schedule.
But I realize that folks have "real lives" to contend with, so I would not want to rush you. Work on it at your convenience, and let me know when you feel you might have it ready. Send me an email (editor@ogaugerr.com) and I will send you a copy of our Author Guidelines by return email.
