Great building Chris. PITA roof pieces to deal with, but it looks so good when it is done.

Groovy structure, Chris.
The pencil lines on the styrene might "Edge of Tomorrow" me back into action  :scared:

Any thoughts if you're going to light the exterior and/or interior?

I like to model the daytime so no lights, sorry. My locomotives don't even have lights  :D

Think I'll call it done (mostly  :P )





Will probably paint it a very light cream color.
Was going to put a cyclone dust collector on the roof, but it was already looking like a Christmas tree  :ashat:

Also built up an Atlas house kit with some very light weathering. Gonna be a dead end street behind the station with a couple houses.


These Atlas houses are sweet!

I'm sure someone will ask about the "back side". It is blank and some spots are wide open. In one extreme spot you can sorta see the back. I didn't even cut window holes. I just glued some styrene sheet squares so they will look like windows from far away.

That mill is based on the mill plans you found in MRC?
What issue?

Jan 1982 RMC.  I reversed mine and changed a bunch around, but the main size is to scale.

The mill's roof looks very nice.  GREAT JOB!  I enjoy your continuing reports and those of several others.  Please keep up the great work and continue to share with us your progress.  The mill itself is looking good.  later, Craig
