One of my colleagues is a model-making enthusiast. He is constantly looking for new and challenging projects. One of his ideas was to create scale models of various objects made out of plastic customer loyalty cards from various shops.
This trailer is made out of Open32 MyCard cards.
Construction materials used are a jigsaw, cutting blades, cyanoacrylate glue and contact adhesive.
The 20 cent euro coin is for scale comparison.
The separation between the people and the exhibit along with the tree in the background really mess with the sense of scale.
Fish scales, of the weighing kind. A scene in the hurly-burly of the Sassoon Docks fish market.

I love the pattern these pine cone scales make! From Wikipedia ~ The members of the pine family (pines,
spruces, firs, cedars, larches, etc.) have cones that are imbricate (that is, with scales overlapping each other
like fish scales). These are the "archetypal" cones. The scales are spirally arranged in fibonacci number ratios.

Designed and folded by Chad Killeen from one uncut square of 26" american foil. The design is the same as the my other version except this one has a new head design.
Yay! After many hours of precreasing and scale folding, I finished this much more presentable version of my scaled wyvern. I came up with the new head because I was told by a couple of people at OUSA that they felt the head appeared a bit too small, so I modified it a little so the head would be slightly larger.

Small scale diorama creation
After watching a few Youtube videos on making 1:64th scale dioramas which included constructing buildings I was enthused but lacked the necessary skill level. The next day I was wandering around a local collectors market when I found a stall selling Hornby Skaledale buildings and accessories. Although Skaledale is for OO gauge railways and is therefore 1:76th scale I thought that they could be used as a backdrop for my 1:64th scale model car collection. Also, using ready made Skaledale items would fast track any diorama I would be making building wise. The vendor had a nice range both boxed and unboxed and I made my selection. What I liked about the Skaledale buildings is that being resin they feature details that are 3D unlike the card versions that appear flat.
The street scene diorama is a work in progress and comprises the following Skaledale buildings:
R9632 Golden Dragon Chinese Takeaway
R8621 Left Hand Mid-Terraced
R8622 Right Hand Mid-Terrace
R9650 Country Garage
The toy car in the image is a Tomica #40 Chevrolet Camaro is 1:66th scale and features working suspension along with opening doors. Two versions were released on the 16th December 2017, the standard issue based on the Camaro ZL1 available in black, and a Special First Edition (SFE) based on the Camaro SS available in red. Therefore, the black and red versions are not the same castings so both are worth collecting as they are not just different colours. The standard version was retired in February 2021 but the SFE was only available for limited period.
Staircases basically completed.....YEAH! Looking forward to moving on to something else after spending a week on these.
