Korber Models problem

Fri, 2014-05-30 10:39 — MRRSparky

I'm working on preparing an O-scale Korber Models kit. First I stripped the excessively heavy paint so I could repaint to a lighter color, white. When I repainted with a primer, I found lots of little plastic bubbles that were relatively easy to carve off.

But in two of the long walls, there must be thousands of small to medium size "divots." Some I could fill with CA glue, but the majority cannot be filled that way, at least in my lifetime. Fortunately, it will be a background building.

Ashland Dairy Products severe kit bash is finished. It took longer then normal because I took LOTS of pictures as I went along. I will post the pictures of the various steps I went through to get here.

Transfer Terminal Kitbash -- Part 1

Mon, 2014-05-26 19:26 — SteveWatson

I first saw noticed this building 11 years ago while riding the train from Toronto to Ottawa. You get to spend a while looking at it during the station stop at Brockville (the VIA station is on the right). And of course if you're a modeller you think: That cries out to be kitbashed out of Pikestuff!

False Front Building Kit Part 1

Mon, 2014-05-26 08:03 — PeterAtt

I had previously posted on a kit project I was going to build, but was side tracked on my display shelf, so now back to the false front kit. To refresh you all the kit is a Bar Mills kit called "Witzingers Washboard Co.". I plan on calling it something else though.

After a couple of reads through the instructions, I think we're ready to dive in. The first section will be the building on the left, shown in the box cover pic here.

Today I finished up adding the base colour coats by airbrush to the structures at the end of the L&T Branch. The cement distributor has also had a little addition added.

Static grass with fly swatter

Sat, 2014-05-24 12:39 — photojim

Does anyone remember the issue which contained the article on applying static grass with a modified electric fly swatter? I finally got my hads on the swatter, and now can't locate the article.

Thanks,

Jim
