After years making models in HO scale and never really realizing a complete model railway, I discovered O scale, and how much I really love building models in 1:48 scale. Then I discovered N scale. Perhaps it's just time to admit that I like building model railways of all sorts, and just get on with it! Follow along as I test and experiment with new things, and have a little fun at the same time. I will endeavor to share as much as I can--

Virgin Church 05
The Virgin Church is slowly progressing. Today I managed to cut most of the clapboards and wall sides. The windows are integrated into the wall sides. This not only makes the windows stronger, it also allows me to etch guides on the wall to make mounting the clapboards easier. The clapboards include nail holes, edge variations, and joints, all of which will become more subtle after paint. Everything is cut from 6 ply railroad board, not dissimilar from manila folder material. With luck I won't overdo it tonight, and can make some progress tomorrow!
