Title: Oakleaf shipping / Junior's Garage
Post by: dick green on July 09, 2019, 09:09:49 PM
I've had bar mills Oak leaf for a while and wanted to bash it into a service station. then I saw road side delights and Karl O's awesome build. So here is my first mock up Using just the kit parts. I have an order from North eastern on the way as the shop on the left is way too small. I'm thinking lights and an interior (at least in the shop).

This is my first scratch/bash so it will all be learning experience

Well I'm back at it. I decided to do the small structure  first. This will be the post office. I chose this because it is the smallest building, and not too hard to rebuild if I wasn't happy with it. When I was a kid growing up in South Carolina. the Post office was attached to a store.
