Curt,

Thanks Butty, It will be here as it is now really part of the Piney Woods.

Quote from: Pennman on July 20, 2025, 11:29:52 PMWOW! Tom this garage is outstanding, as are the details and scenery.
Maybe that concrete drive does need a few oil spills, like one small one under the truck with the open hood.

Regarding the Photo Flo for acrylic paints:  I used some to spread acrylic paint over a wood sheet material
and it seemed to brush much easier. And on the plastic truck it didn't show any brush marks. Hope it works for you.

Rich,

I had planned on adding more to the concrete drive. Your and Dave's comment beat me to it.

Thank you for the great compliment. I will be trying the photo flo with paints down the road.

I added some oil spills, stains and weeds to the overall scene.

This was a fun build but now I'm ready to move on to another project. I won't be doing a build thread for a few months.

I have three brass cabeese that need attention and marker lights. That is the immediate next project.

Howdy Tom,

The garage continues to look fantastic with the details.  I especially like the slick grease spot by the pump.  Neat!

Have fun,

My current build is the Layout scenery and miscellaneous rolling stock .
