Dozens of new masters were made for this kit. New workbenches, shelves, junk piles, etc . . . Cast in my exclusive tinted resin and metal parts. Board on board on batten construction over digitally reproduced templates insure accurate and detailed walls. The laser cut windows provide the opportunity to model individual panes of glass with ease and realism.
A side view including the abandoned water tank. It used to service a spur track but now provides water to the boiler/mill engine. The water tank is a one piece resin casting and has all the classic proportions of an old logging tank. The diorama is brimming with clutter and details inside and out. The mill engine porch is such a classic scene.
A view into the interior of the Machine Shop extension and the lathe. three different roofing materials are utilized on the main building. Batten, faded red tar paper, and our new laser cut shingles. The mill engine piping is visible in this shot.
The rear of the diorama and the overhead crane. Isn't this a beautiful shot! The colors are so natural and blend well. It is this type of weathering and scenery instructions you will find in our construction manual. Our time tested methods insure results like those pictured.
