Well Mike,

For a 3d printed model on a FDM printer it looks fantastic.  you would think it was a resin kit.  Well done (a gazillion thumbs up).

Have fun on your trip and safe travels.

The water tank looks fantastic. Wonderful job on this scratch build. Beautiful model for sure.

Howdy folks,

The water tower is complete, except for ties, spike barrel, crates, and general trash to be applied when it is mounted on the layout.  For now, here are a few photos showing the finished tower.

That's it.  The next build may be a sheriff's office or a cattle car.  I don't plan to rush into them so I can work on the layout...the ever elusive layout.

Have fun,
mike

Mike, it's sublime.
The painting and weathering is top notch.
The little touches like the screen on the window are excellent.

Mike,

Very nice scratchbuild.  It looks very real.  I like all the textures--stone, wood, shingles, etc--and subtle colors.
