As I've been working on the town, I've also been continuing to detail out a Lionel building into a "Pizza Planet". It's almost done, with just some figures, prints, and final assembly pending:
First, I found some O-scale arcade games on ebay. They come in 3D printed gray plastic, but turn out great when painted and detailed,
I also built out the first floor interior for the pizza place, complete with pizza oven in the back! I make my ground floor interiors out of foamboard and insert them into the base so they can be easily removed and repaired/updated:
Because of the way the building is constructed, it's easiest to mount the interior to the floor below. Here's the partially complete "arcade level" above the main pizza floor. There's also a billiards level constructed in a similar manner:
Here's the sign for the roof. I printed the log on gloss sticker paper, stuck it to styrene, cut it out, and mounted it to modified/painted miller engineering billboard supports. Note the light strip mounted to the roof to illuminate the sign. I blacked out the strip (aside from the LEDs of course) so it blends in:
In an earlier reply, I talked about mounting lighting strips inside the buildings. Here's the one on the roof, where it will illuminate the 3rd floor. I don't trust the sticky backing that comes on the LED strips, so I supplement it with goop. In this building, I built each floor separately and will twist all the wires together (once assembled) in the unseen back half of the first floor.
