All I can say is your thread has become my first stop when I sign on the forum. Some just plan great modeling. I look forward to each update. Keep up the great work. It is all about the details!

Steve,

It all looks so nasty and crappy, meaning it looks all so natural. I love it, fantastic job.

Thanks John, that's a great compliment, I'll try to update more frequently.

Thanks Tom, that's the feel I was going for. I've never been to a clean and organized scrap business, I'm sure it was much worse before the EPA and OSHA.

Well done Steve.....you've set the bar a tad high for me to follow with my build.

Thanks Greg. Just follow Brett's instructions and it'll come out great.

Hello everyone, it's time for my weekly update.

I made some more progress detailing and scenic-ing the area around the front and back of O'Neills.


I tried to make sure I had logical paths around the junk. I think it really helps define a scene, fences are also helpful for boxing a scene in.


A close-up shot of some Brett's great castings. The pipe is made from brass piping I purchased from Amazon. I blackened it with Jax Brass Black.

Cheap way to add some detail to a scene.


Under the stairs and the side of the loading dock. The pipes under the stairs are made from styrene spray painted black.


A different angle shot of the front of the building.




Trackside loading dock. I finished this area on Friday. I'll be adding some more weeds to the road area, this dirt road leads down to the salvage yard.






Thanks for checking in. I'm finishing up the fence that borders the main salvage yard area, then I'll be starting the scenery for the lower level.

Steve,
In my opinion, that's just about as good as it gets! The muted colors throughout, the spacing, placement, ground cover, textures. Just perfect! A Best In Show!
