NEW ALBUM JUST ADDED # 16 - http://steves3roscale.shutterfly.com/pictures/8585

Steve ,

great weathering ,im not sure if the figures came that way but if you painted them,(I havnt seen them before) the rubber gloves is a nice touch!

Jim,

wow! Leslie did an awesome job on that station.Ive seen a lot of them redone but that's by far the nicest ive ever seen.

little more progress on the coke company'

I like to paint up those metal ARTTISTA figures. Simply the best!

Harry made a prototype L A station for LIONEL a few years back that never went into production.

I have been working on my road & depot platform ,still needs another coat of paint.

Jim, Steve, Patrick,

Keep up the good work guys. I am too embroiled in the summer to get cracking on new projects and complete some my current ones. Maybe with all this rain, I will get back into the groove. Hope to have some pictures for next week.

Alan Graziano

Steve, thanks for the start and the videos

Steve, great weathering as usual, very realistic!

Jim, wow Leslie is just cranking out a beautiful station.

Patrick, nice work, your scratch builds are super

Charlie, nice station photo

NYClines - nice progress on the roads.

We are getting ready to reintroduce the 315 grain silo to the Korber line.  We have replaced the silo cap with a new laser cut part that fits much better, and also made some new laser cut windows for the building as well.

Here is my prototype build up to take some photos , and test out the new instructions we are writing.

Steve, how did you model the concrete pad under that terrifically aged covered hopper?

Well, that smelt.

Great work, Ladies and Gents.  

Finaly got around to putting up the card stock/foamcore background industry. Now waiting on Gargraces Gantry Crane 5 rail track to complete crane installation. Also about ready to hang Frank's back drop but it has just beem to stinking hot here in the Northwest to do much of anything. No break in temps for the forseeable near future either!

Buildings are Clever Models Cardstock onver foamcore.

That's enough guys-its getting too deep,your saying things I cant fathom, someone here  may go and blow a seal.

This conversation is really starting to flounder

Man, guess this has been a pretty crappie day for everyone! Talk about get off course. Better get this topic reeled back in.

Holy mackeral Frank, cut it out!

White paint

Thanks

All roadways, slabs and sidewalks as seen in my photo album link below are decorated with spackle over lauan.

Great work everyone!! You guys keep pushing the envelope with better and better detail.

Jeff

Thanks Jeff for getting us back on track, we were really floundering around for a while!  Russ

We weren't really floundering, but we were on the bream.

You are baiting us and it is beginning to smell fishy, Newton Minnow would not approve.

I was just carping.

OK, boys....let's reel it in....enough is enough.  I'm returning to trains......going to run my Pennsy Sharks!  Tom in Pikesburgh

A whale of a thread while it lasted.

 You guys think faster than I do!

I had to quit, I have brain barnacles.

 Gil--definitely one of the best of our forumites and, ironically, he loved to surf fish on teh Outer Banks.

So Dewey, who do you think will take over his perch?

Thanks Guys, After this weekend I needed the comic relief.

And really amazing pictures, Wish I had the layout to the point I could start trying this stuff.  Surprised Lee didn't put the Cathedral in here too, I'm sure you've seen it but WOW.

"Benjamin Porter Terrell -- July 1, 1960 - July 12, 1986"

Thanks, Jim. Not mourning, just remembering.

Wow everyone clamed up all the sudden. 

Great building Vulcan!! 

I guess we heard form everyone but Bobby Baccala.
