I with David here, you are too modest. This matches anything I've seen, even in the magazines at work. This is great stuff. Very impressive. JIm

WOW.... the scenery, the track and everything else is absolutely beautiful. It's very impressive.

I was trying match David and his ketchup/mustard bottles and now this… If my little people revolted at not having condiments just think what they'd do if they realize there's no TP…"I don't have a square to spare". Too much cool in just this one building. I am impressed, humbled, challenged, and slightly frustrated. To say well done is not enough but since it's the best I've got..Well Done Sir!

I'm starting on the lobby interior. I made the soda cooler & counter out of styrene & then printed up some maps & posters. The cardboard stand up is the Texaco Man : ) I still need to make some displays for the counter, a cash register & perhaps a rack of snacks. I don't want to go totally crazy on the lobby interior because most of it will not show in the end anyway. That was one of the things I learned when I worked in L.A. as a scenic artist, never waste time on things that won't show on camera. : ) Notice how through the lobby windows just a hint of an interior sells it as being completely detailed.

Deco - absolutely brilliant. I love the entire enchilada...and I'm a man that likes enchiladas.

I am super impressed with your weathering skills too. I'm still working on that. Care to share those secrets?

[HRWJim]

I love how you say you don't want to go crazy? LOL THIS WHOLE THING IS CRAZY! The lighting effects, the Texaco man, the pizza! Great stuff! Jim

Awesome,Awesome,Awesome, this is just beautiful work, and I agree with others, you are shorting yourself concerning your skills. The trains guys are pretty precise, but they also have pretty much everything they could want to detail something at their disposal in most well stocked hobby shops. You constructed this from what.. your vision to make it look like what you had in your head. Simply amazing, I wish I had available space to do a street type race coarse with buildings and such. But with multiple guys coming on club nights, I`m more inclined to use my space to a 4 lane track to accommodate them. But oh how I wish !
super job !

I added a rack of snacks. I found an image of a shelf of chips, printed out a couple sets of them, and "layered" them to create depth.

Well done. It's all about fooling the eye. We see what we want to see.

[HRWJim]

You never cease to amaze me. The chip rack and cooler are seriously cool, hell I was impressed with the SKY Chief poster. Keep the pictures coming. Jim

[SpeedyNH]

care to post the sky chief poster stand alone as a pdf or something? i'd sure like to print one myself as i'm an old dude myself.
excellent modeling! we're all seriously impressed here.
thanks!

Other than the lights and sound, I'm calling the interior a wrap. Tonight I made a cash register (styrene w/printed paper details), bathroom keys and a cigarette display behind the counter. I found the image on the net, and then cut a few of the individual packs free from the basic image so I could lean them forward a bit to give it a little depth.
