Prototype photos kindly supplied by Kris Blackmarr, Colorado, USA

These photos by Kris are typical of the detail,  colouring and cladding that will be adopted for the Stamp Mill exterior.

Now for some work in progress photos of the Stamp Mill.

Sheets are glued together and openings cut

Modeling is a very healthy past time

I recently pickup 60 sheets of O scale roofing iron and laid them out on a large board. With some “el cheapo” grey primer, I give them a light spray over. Final colour finish will be decided at a later stage.

I use yellow glue to fix sheets to the cardstock.
