The HO scale farmhouse kit is the same design as the one on my N scale layout, but each of us detailed ours a bit differently, and each of us scratchbuilt a shed for the farm vehicles.. Here is a link to my version of this building: www.flickr.com/photos/13893317@N06/8042816729/in/set-7215... . The amber wheat field in the background is painted on. The trees behind the farmhouse are a photograph that is cut out to help hide a hidden track in a carefully concealed trench that will eventually lead to a lower level featuring Emporia, Kansas.
This photo was taken of Steve Sandifer's HO scale layout. All his finished structures and scenery are superb. He models a Santa Fe branchline in central Kansas circa 1952. I photographed his layout on the 2014 Fall Layout Tour

This old scale has been sitting around our house for years. I think my wife got it as a wedding present some 12 years ago. There's not telling how old it really is. We always liked the rust patina and thought it would be a good subject to photograph, but have never gotten around to it before.
Tonight I had to take something of value. It has been about a week and a half since I've taken anything of note.
For this shot, I had one light on level with the face of the scale and to the right of the image. I had my handy-dandy black backdrop behind and underexposed.
Only post-processing in Photoshop was an adjustment layer for contrast, set to 45% opacity (no adjustment in the dialog box) and resizing.
Please critique honestly,

The trouble with digital bricks is that you can take a half finished build, put it off in some corner- "corner" being entirely relative to what you're working on the most -and leave it there for months without ever having to actually look at it, much less fiddle with it.
For example, it's been forever and a day since I last tried to make a quad that wasn't the Garmr or Tempst-in-a-Teacup, but the various approaches and dead-ends have been sitting there accusingly without a speck of dust to hide their reproach.
Incidentally, there's nothing quite like "X bricks were not placed correctly and have been removed from the model" to make one paranoid. You just know the single missing brick you don't notice is going to be glaringly apparent to someone who doesn't overlook it because he knows it's supposed to be there and his mind fills it in for him whether it's truly there or not.
Starting with a re-scaled Worsley Works 3mm scale model of a British Railways 04 class, eventually I managed to create this likeness of a TGR V class. It runs on a Bullant mechanism provided by Hollywood Foundry.
Sometimes, when looking at a photograph it is difficult to judge the scale of elements within; the angle from which a photograph is taken alters dramatically the perceived scale which we view the image in our mind. I guess you may be struggling a little with this one taken with the camera nearly at ground level. Cast your eye to the V in the major rocks on the right of the picture and you will see a tree, perhaps that will now alter your perception of the scale? The two largest peaks were probably only five metres or so higher than the level of the camera, although considerably higher than the landscape surrounding this location.
Where? Oh yes, taken on a very warm day a few years ago at Hanging Rock in Australia.

Issued by Conquest Models. It is 1:43 scale and crafted in white metal.
The model is finished in Arroyo Turquoise Poly.
This model was added to my collection in May 2020.
Did you know that butterfly wings are covered with microscopic scales? I used fish leather with a visible scale pattern to cover the spine. Conceptual. No?
(You can find all colors of fish leather at fineleathers.etsy.com).
I started construction on my first ever Pullip-scale (1:6 scale) room box (diorama, dollhouse, whatever...) today. Well, okay, second ever, if you count the Pullip-scale U-Boat project that never reached completion.
The set should also work for Monster High and other 10- to 12-inch (1:6 scale) figures.
I borrowed the idea for the wall treatment from Flickr member Tarja_.
