The roof is a standout: tops off your model nicely.  The hose and meter are simply wonderful.

Wonderful work Tom and I'm glad to see the inmates will stay dry during the summer possum pounders with their new roof..... 8)

        Brother Tom, I'm simply blown away by the attention to detail on this awesome scratch build.  Your modeling skills are top shelf brother!

I just love the way you pizza squeezed this highly detailed eye candy into a dedicated spot on the layout. 8)

Thommy my friend,

Wow brother, thanks! This was a build that I stayed true to my original thoughts in the build. I didn't think it would take me as long as it did but I'm happy with the result. Again, thank you.

Quote from: robert goslin on March 12, 2025, 06:41:05 AMGreat to this one one finished Tom.  Superb work as always, and I enjoy all the little tips you give along the way.
And the location is spot on.  Fills an awkward location, that obviously just wouldn't work with a square building. Good use of the real estate.


Rob,

Thank you very much. I enjoy building structures and scratch building along the way. I also enjoy sharing my techniques and tips so you are very welcome.

Quote from: Zephyrus52246 on March 12, 2025, 09:42:08 AMAnother wonderful build, Tom.  Interesting that you had to detail all sides as it's visible from both sides of the peninsula.

Jeff


Dr. Jeff,

I appreciate the comment. Yes, this structure is visible to the visitor from all sides and I couldn't cut any corners in the details.
