Finishing FOS Canal & Third diorama Pt.3

After I glued down the sidewalk, did some scenery and made rip rap I went into procrastination mode. In early stages of planning I envisioned the steps for a shortcut. That required getting on the computer and designing them in a CAD software. However, I spend all day working on the computer and I don't want spend even more time on it at home. Therefore, it took me some time to get the steps drawn up. Now that this task is behind I should move forward a little faster.

Building Bower's Brewery by Microscale Models Pt.2

The next update on this project will most likely be the last. All is left is to build the deck and make two water tanks. The deck is about 50% done. The water tanks are under way as well.  Other than broken pieces of the base casting I haven't had any issues so far. I don't expect anything to come up at this point either.

Building Gibley's Furniture Co by Bar Mills Pt.3

I am not a big fan of building the same kit twice. Usually I sell my own copy after I build one for someone. Since Gibley's is OOP now I may be able to get my money back if I sold it on eBay. However,  I may hold on to it for awhile. I still think I may build it some day. I may modify it in some way though. Or if someone is interested I can build it as designed for $300 plus what I paid for the kit which I think was $120. Just send me a message using contact form.
