Good to see progress on the diorama. Building accurate track with all that scale hardware is tedious and time consuming but the results can be beautiful. I think yours will be very impressive. -- Russ

Sami

Thank's guys !

Here is track in scratchbuilding on the first diorama

Hi Sami,

Nice work on the track. I like that little engine. Looks nice with the off center cab.
Following along on the progression of your layout.

I completely agree with Bernd about the track and loco. A treat for the eyes. -- Russ

Hello,

At the moment I work on the tower of docker. This tower is present in the harbour of my city. She remained in service until 1962.
she announces the working day with a bell at the top.

I was wrong in certain dimensions and the tower is not the exact scale but the idea is there.

The top of the tower is in scratchbuilding and the bricks is of laser cut.









Barney

Superb and very precise workmanship  - its looking great

Good work, I like to see real buildings reproduced.

Very interesting prototype, and an excellent start on the model!

That is a very challenging subject and you've built it very well. -- Russ

Delightful piece, model building is more then counting bricks or rivets.  There are places such as Russ's back garden shed ;D  for the people who come up to work like yours with micrometers to prove that a work of art isn't correct.

Very nice Sami, well done. I agree, it's always interesting and I believe more satisfying, to see actual buildings reproduced as models

Stay low, keep quiet, keep it simple, don't expect too much, enjoy what you have.

Hauk

Excellent work, and a refreshingly original prototype!
Regards, Hauk

Perfect conversion of an interesting prototype into the model!
