This one should make the Carrera folks happy! I needed a large grandstand VIP area to cover up a spot on my road courseImage.
Still have a bunch to do, and add the lighting and little details, but I am pretty happy with the outcome so far.

An old piece of 1/4" paneling cut up a lot!, the windows came from a new Christmas ornament box, the Decals are from a set Harry sent me. nothing fancy here! just some time and a little craft paint. its 16" inches tall,and 18" wide.

Wow, impressive work. That is what I need on one of my corners!

Is your contractor crew mobile? :)

I Really like the way it fills up a corner, I will post a pic of it in place.

Nice job Bob, I like the idea for corners, its also an eyecatcher not just a space filler.
Well done

Thanks Guys! It was kind of a last minute thought after I moved a standing shelf next to my track. It gave me an odd corner for scenery. So this filled the bill. Its actually facing the pit area, and looks pretty good in place.
