Finally got one of the many GNR station buildings needed for our route into the game. Still quite a bit of work needed on it but I'm fairly pleased with how it looks.
Some great details Brian ! Love the stepped chimney tops and barge board intricacies. Thanks for posting this shot up, always interested to see how you guys are getting on
This is an oddball, despite many of the stations having similar building "components." Breadsall closed to passengers in 1953 and was still in LNER Buckingham green and stone colours. The signal box stayed open and was repainted but the station buildings never were, as Brian's lovely model shows.
Thanks Phil, I knew that Paul would most likely see it, he is the one responsible for raising the bar on detail. I am expecting comments from Keith about there not being a fireplace in the Ladies Waiting Room.
It's so beautifully modelled and realistic that I want to open the doors and explore the interiors. One of the 'drawbacks' of Brian fitting clear glass in the windows is that the interiors have to be crafted but, despite Brian's concerns, I don't think he needs to model every last detail because it's only sad geeks like me that will make a point of looking inside. For most players I'm sure that the walls will do nicely.
