Scale Model Scenery

[madharry]

I have found thses little laser cut kits from scalemodelscenery.co.uk depicting market stalls. These are in OO 4mm scale but are so fragile and slender they could pass for HO.

Here is the package label which doubles as the instructions. The wooden parts sheet and the the printed canopies.

Continuing...........the trestles are made up first. These are very delicate and I strongly suggest using tweezers. The table top is then glued to the trestles.........

The canopy frame is made of two elements which is then glued to the tables. Here are the four from this kit.

Pretty cool and nice job. Are you planning on using cloth on the tops?

I feel a farmers market coming on.  Such a shame their N-scale is 1:148, some things will work in 1:160 but most will be too large.

Those stalls are really cool.  A half mil difference on scaling is never going to show up. The "wow" factor will make even the toughest picker of nits overlook it.

Thanx

I agree  the difference between OO and HO is 15% while it is only 11% between the N scales...........

Here are the crates. there are several of different sizes which you glue together on top of each other.............

The kit includes some printed vegetables which you cut up and apply to the bottom of the crates. It is very effective. But before I plant these on the layout I intend making my own veggies in 3D.

Finally I added the canopies to the frames. The kit includes a choice of styles and colours.

I am really pleased how this kit went together. The price in the UK is £5.50  or about US$7.00..........amazing value!

Those look great, Mike.  The vegetable pictures really top it off.
