20 th Century LIMITED by Alan Rose

The model that I now want to tackle
is truly a very unusual model.
It shows an express train in a shortened perspective.
In addition, the train can only be seen as a relief that measures almost 118 cm from the very large locomotive to the tiny passenger cars at the end of the train.
I built the model years ago for the first time.
So now follows my second attempt *

Outstanding work, sir. I wish I had known of this model 15 years ago. I was doing a stage set for a vacation bible school. Needed an Australian train pulling into a station. A lot of trial and error as I did a forced perspective relief model of the train and station protruding from the wall. Seeing an example would have helped


As always thank you for sharing. The perspective is very effective. You always do such precise and clean builds. Thanks again

Wonderful, beautiful build . Now, how do you solve the problems with the perspective of everything around it ?

I'm not sure, but have heard it might help to sing that song which goes, "Come on baby, do the locomotion" while you are working it out.

But seriously, this model has a flavor of uplifting graphic arts poster, or an album cover, feel to it.
