How are you taking your build pictures? I love your pictures showing you doing it rather than showing what you did.

We need a how to do a build thread thread from you.  I think you are the Master.

This is a great kit from Fos. Glad to have found this cool build. Somehow I missed it when it was first started.

Hi Bob:

like the room. Is that a Preiser figure. I like it. If so what set is it from and could you post the number. Keep up the good work and keep the photos coming.

That is a good looking interior for a small room.

Jim

Thanks Jim,  I'm not sure how much you'll be able to see through the window, aside from the couple standing in front of the window, but I wanted to give the illusion of a room.

Bob,

The interiors are going to look great especially with some "Tom foolery" going on. No, they didn't
name that after me.

Tom

Thanks Tom!  Are you absolutely certain that you're in no way associated with the term "Tom foolery"?   

[ReadingBob]

Nice Bob....very inspiring.  I think I would give that a try sometime.  .... btw, are you going to have a bed for that room?....those poor kids will definitely get tired standing up all the time, they'll need a place to rest.

No.  No bed for them Donato.     It's just an empty room.  I may scratch build some beds for the rooms in the hotel though.  I don't think you'll be able to see much of this room, through the window, aside from the couple standing in front of the window making out.

Hi John.  I have an old Sony Cybershot on cheap little tripod that stands about six inches tall sitting on the opposite side of my workbench pointed toward the work area.  I know where the 'delay' button is on the back by feel so I just reach over, press the button, press the shutter and then it'll take a picture a few seconds later which gives me time to get back to work on whatever it is I'm doing.

Jaime

Thank Jamie.  I'm glad you found it too.  Yep, another gem by FOS. All kinds of textures and what not in this one.  It's been a long build but a fun build.

Karl

Thanks Karl.  No, the figure in the room are Woodland Scenics figures.  They're from the set shown below.  I do have a Preiser couple kissing but I'm going to use that one outside somewhere.

Looking good Bob! Two thumbs up.

Thanks Slim!  I've been busy working on lighting all of the structures.  Five down, two to go.   

[ReadingBob]

It is very cool, Bob.

Vilius

Thanks Vilius.  It's a neat kit.  Actually it's seven neat kits in one.

Hi Bob:

Thanks for the reply. I will have to see if I can find that set at our local train store.

Thanks Karl
