I made the loco shed by printing the parts twice to create reliefs by stacking. The interior was painted. Reduced from HO to Z (1/220) scale.

Dear Jan:
I think that you should be crowned the "King of Z". That is most wonderful
Enjoy your crown

Very nice looking.


The layering technique really works well.

Big kudos to you, Jan, that's a superb piece!

And while I'm at it, I've seen your BB 13001 Shorty over at the le-Z-forum, and it is absolutely lovely, too!

Coincidentially, I've been digging a bit into tinplate and old toy trains, too, and I've come across the French Mecano/Hornby catalogue of 1958, the first production year of the 0 gauge BB 13000 model loco (it even is the "Star" on the cover!).

So, I have the same age as the Hornby model that was an inspiration for my Shorty!
It doesn't make me feel any younger.

Thank you all for your kind comments!

Very nice! A big thumbs up!

[Kevin WS]

Excellent work on that!

[Jan Kytop]

Thank you very much.
By the way, did you spot the cats?

[Siwi]

Very impressive. The objects around the walls really add a lot of interest and realism.

Oh my God, I didn't !
However, as cats do, they are well hidden in plain sight!
