I have had a pretty good week with the trains. Railcop was over on Friday and we made some wall castings for his layout, and when we were done I just left things out, so Saturday I went to making more castings. I did another 4 batches which is 28 more wall sections. Some are stone and one mold is the concrete shoring they used along soft facings of cuts.
Since I was in work mode and about out of plaster I decided to work on a building that was a hardware store/warehouse. I had all ready made a wooden mock up
and following in Gary S's footsteps I thought I would try gluing styrene brick to it.
The building is a very odd shape
and I am guessing the indentation in the building was an outside freight elevator. It's the right size to hold a freight wagon or two, so I am just going to go with the theory. In addition to Hardware, the pottery that was nearby used the upper floor for a warehouse. Here is what I have to work from picture wise
Here I have glued the brick to the side and added a couple doors in the elevator shaft
I printed some pictures to put behind the window openings and glued some DPM modular building parts to the ends that will face the street on one side, and and alley on the other..
