Title: Detailed Microscene for next to nowt
Post by: barrymk on October 04, 2019, 02:33:02 PM
With an hour to spare and idle hands I decided to make a miniature scene with as much unpaid for scrap as I could.  I found a picture on Google images that said "Do it" so I used that as inspiration.

Thanks all, unfortunately I shot the photos under LED light only and it looks a lot redder than it actually is.  That aside it was fun to create something that can be slipped into one of my mining or industrial areas with little trouble and that cost nothing much in terms of hobby cash.

Thanks George & Greg.  I still can't handle much in the way of major modelling projects still outstanding thanks to the trashed Radial nerve in my right hand but small items like this keep my hand in. (No pun intended)
