Some of my creations....

Hello everybody
First I want to make clear that I 'm not just a paper modeler, but I
use any means necessary to achieve a scale realism to my models.
Sometimes I use more paper, sometimes styrene and wood.
I like small scales that allow a lot of detail in a small space.
Words without images are worthless, so let's get to the point...

( I 'm not sure if I should post it under the "dioramas" or "architectural models")
For the warehouse of my N scale diorama "End of the line" I used printed
sheets from the "Scalescenes" company, i.e. "aged brown brick" and "aged
corrugated iron" for the roof on foam board as inner structure. For the front
I added a layer of cork with openings for the windows and doors. This was
done as a second attempt 'cause I did not like the first result.
The windows are "Tichy" -plastic stuff- and the door and signs are from "Scalescenes" again from their free model "low relief warehouse",
with the handle made of a tiny piece of wood. More weathering was achieved
with several layers of oil colors mainly, enamels and acrylics both in washes
and normal painting. For the concrete I use mainly cork with wall putty.
My photographic ability really sucks .

For more details feel free to visit my blog. Comments and questions more than welcome.

That weathering looks authentic. I could learn a thing or two from you. Love the end of the line diorama.

Thanks a lot for your comments. Weathering is done mostly with oils.
I love paint rusty stuff and creating abandoned scenes.
Next is a "wooden" hut that was made out of 1.5mm thick carton for the
inner structure and boards made of prestained canson paper. Windows
again from "Tichy".

Terrific job on your weathering and testuring - extreme realism in a tiny scale. Your "End of the Line" diorama is very dramatic, evoking a sad, melancholy emotion. Beautiful work.

Very realistic looking run down buildings. I have seen actual buildings that look just like those. The corrugated roofing are especially good.
