I noticed today for the first time the torn awning over the top left window. Very nice look. It certainly make this look like fabric.

Country: South Africa | Posts: 2831 Ensign Engineer Posted - 05/31/2013 :  08:43:21 AM     Hey Karl,nice to see your thread come back up again! Your work is always a pleasure to see! I was starting to think, that you painted yourself into a corner at work somewhere. Greg Shinnie Country: Canada | Posts: 9039 Chuck Doan Fireman Posted - 05/31/2013 :  10:42:54 AM     I'm glad to see you back at this! Country: USA | Posts: 1560 UKGuy Fireman Posted - 05/31/2013 :  2:23:26 PM         Thanks for all the posts guys, really appreciate them all. Currently staring at the dio and trying to decide where to jump in first. Maybe I'll paint Frank, his silver suit is a little modern looking for the era. Karl.A Country: USA | Posts: 6372 Frederic Testard Engineer Premium Member Posted - 06/01/2013 :  5:35:37 PM     Big potential for detailing there, Karl. I don't know if I would do it first (might depend on what details I have available), but certainly these wooden posts beg for some clusters of wild grass. I also see a man - or a woman (or, if I dare, both) - leaning over the railing and watching the spectators. I love the brown color of the smaller building. Also, the sign 'Hotel' is beautifully weathered. Country: France | Posts: 17652 TRAINS1941 Engineer Premium Member Posted - 06/01/2013 :  6:27:49 PM     Karl dam nice to see this get going again. That brown is some nice coloring. Jerry "And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." A. Lincoln Country: USA | Posts: 13204 AVRR-PA Fireman Premium Member Posted - 06/01/2013 :  6:36:58 PM       Beautiful work, Karl. I'm looking forward to reading along. Don Country: USA | Posts: 5005 BillMichaels Engine Wiper Posted - 06/01/2013 :  11:18:17 PM     I had to remind myself that this isn't a kit; all scratch built. That leaves me somewhere between inspired and frustrated! Glad to see you're back at this one, Karl. I wanna see this and O'Niell's Wheels at the Finescale show in November. Country: USA | Posts: 285 CBryars2 Crew Chief Premium Member Posted - 06/02/2013 :  12:54:39 AM       Karl, Looks great. Can you expound on your windows - how you do them? Also would be interested in learning more about the chipping paint technique. Thanks Cameron Country: USA | Posts: 775 UKGuy Fireman Posted - 06/02/2013 :  02:00:41 AM         Thanks Bryan, some time ago I started trying to add in small details to give a little extra effect, the ripped awning was one of them. I was kinda surprised/disappointed that nobody noticed/mentioned the old turned porch post(Brett's idea) on O'Neills that was holding up the lean-to work shed... oh well. Thanks Karl.S I appreciate it. I'll aim to please Dallas, good to have you along. Doing great thanks Wes, yep it has been way too long.... so have you packed up the surfboard yet to get back to the bench ??? Thanks Greg, glad to read you enjoy them. I only ever made that mistake once Thanks Chuck, always great to know you are here. Indeed Frederick the posts will get some attention and a few tufts. Thanks for the valued input and ideas as always. You know me.... structure first details later... still have some work to do. Thanks Jerry, it's good to be back at it... yep I'm real pleased with the brown wood, just wish I could remember how the hell I did it, I need a couple more pieces for trim. Thanks very much Don, I'm also looking forward to reading the comments as it proceeds. Thanks Bill, I wanna tell you to be inspired, but how ever I word it it sounds big headed, so I'll just say, don't get frustrated.... They will both be at the Expo, heck, one of them might even be finished..... Thanks Cameron, great to have you along. The peeling paint is copied directly from Chuck Doans method as detailed on his Fotiki site. Which part of the windows do you want to know about?

Dusted it off, broke a few things, time to 'git 'er done' Karl.A Country: USA | Posts: 6372 Page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 of 15 Topic    New Topic |    New Poll |   Reply to Topic |  Previous Page | Next Page Jump To: Select Forum Railroad Line Administrative Forums       Forum News       Administrative Posts General Forums       WorkShops, Garage, Machines and Tools       The Tour Bus       The Arrival Track       RR-L Member Personal Websites       The Crew Lounge       The Classroom       Interchange Tracks       Rail Events       Reference & Research Model Railroad Forums       The Sn3 Branch       Mike Chambers' Craftsman's Corner       HOn30 and HOn3 Forum       Early Rail Forum       Dead Rail Forum       The On30 Line       Railroad Photography Forum       Small Scale Model Railroad Forum       Mid Scale Model Railroad Forum       Large Scale Model Railroad Forum       Logging, Mining, & Narrow minded       Model Railroad Construction       Micro & Mini Layouts       Layout Design / Operation Sig Forum       Startin' from Scratch       DCC, Computers and Electronics for Model Railroads Shop Talk       Vehicle and Non-Rail Transportation Modeling       The Steam Shop       The Roundhouse       Rolling Stock: the Car Shops       The Diesel Shop Company Store       Railroad-Line Swap Meet       New Product Announcements Fallen Flag Railroad Forums       Erie / Lackawanna Railroad Forum       Raritan River Railroad Forum Railroad Software Forums       Atlas Right Track Software       Railroad Line Software Library Model Railroad Club Forums       The Model Railroad Club Forum Sponsor Forums       Rusty Stumps Scale Models       KingMill Enterprises Railroad Line Weblinks       Badger Creek Lumber Co.       Central Missouri & Southern RR       Raritan River Railroad       Thor's All Gauge Page  -------------------- Home Active Topics Frequently Asked Questions Member Information Search Page Railroad Line Forums © 2000-2020 Railroad Line Co.
