Supply work W.I.P.

[Bagge]

Started on the trainwagon and the Miniart Cargoshed, the wagon only needs painting now.
This is the first miniart house i build and it's a little tricky to figure out how to put everything together, but i managed to get the basic structure together in a day.

First parts cut out...

Inner walls glued

Almost there!

:yipee

I got it started but there will be many campaigns taking my time now, so i see when i get more done on it

Thanks Mike & Saul
It will take some filler to fix the corners and window holes, thinking of cut away and glue a new styrene frame around the windows and door, to make it fit better around the frames.
If anyone has good pics of electric installations from around 30's 40's europe then i would be very glad if you posted them here or a link to them

Excellent! Not easy at all to clean up the parts from Mini Art buildings, but great detail!

All the best!!!

Very nice! I got a MiniArt destroyed building kit from Iron Mike, and it gave me quite a few fits getting it assembled, looks like you had a much easier time w/ the construction than I did.

 

[Bagge]

Thanks Adam
Well it's a question about being able to hide the mistakes i guess hahaha
Working on the floor right now, but i must do something about the window and door openings....

The door and window openings are difficult areas, I ground mine down as smooth as I could get, filled the joint with Squadron Green putty, then used Mr Surfacer to add a little texture. Looking good!

[Bagge]

Ok here is some progress of the work

And here is the first of the 9 rafters

Is there someone here that have a good way of making either corrugated steelroof or "eternit"plates?
Had some roof tiles from plusmodel sitting on the shelf, but when i opened them most of them were just small pieces and dust! :stinker
