After a long long delay this one is just about ready to go. This HO scale kit is based on a photo taken by Dennis Cooper of an abandoned house in St. Louis. It will retail at $70.00. I'm hoping this will actually be ready to go out the door in 2 or 3 weeks. Finally. : )

Looks good Randy .... I'll be sure to keep my eyes open for this one.
That's nice, but I sure wish there was a way to 'un-modernize' this, particularly the boarded-up window. This would make a nice late 19th century/early 20th century house if it weren't quite so decrepit.

Well Dave you're probably right, but that's not what I do. : ) There are hundreds of other prim & proper perfectly new looking structures kits out there already. I just cut right to the chase & add the character from the get go. Some like it, some don't. : ) Cheers.

And done better than any!👍
I love this one Randy!!!
The diorama for the box cover photo is starting to take shape. The signs say "Building Condemned". I'll reshoot this outside this week in the direct sun & better background.

Actually, there are very few, if any, sources for masonry Victorian houses out there...
