A beautiful water level shot of the left side of the diorama. It is the combination of the structures, details, scenery, and the magnificent fishing boats that combine to make it look so real! Can you smell the salt water and fish? Our comprehensive instructions cover all of these aspects and more. Those familiar with my kits know well how complete my instructions are allowing you to capture the same realism and character shown here.
By now you have gotten a feel for the relationship between the main structures. Their different coloring, siding, shapes, roofing, and details create a true sense of individuality. They are tied together nicely with weathering so they fit well together blending into one truly fine waterfront scene. If you already own Shelby’s try modeling the Clam and Oyster Company in a different color like faded green to differentiate the two. This will allow you to model the Foss’ Landing scene in its entirety.
This view of the back left rear corner shows where the small rowboat shed is tucked away under the tree. The shed is a perfect introduction to board on board construction due to its small size and simple layout. The trucks are commercial kits bashed to look a bit unique. These are simple projects that only require a spare evening to complete.
How about the two beautiful fishing boats sitting in the calm water? They are now available in kit form with a single piece resin hull and all the details pictured! Nautical details and rigging instructions are also included.
