It looks like I may have to purchase some new Sidekick from Bombshell Miniarures.
This blog is mainly a place where I can record my current interests. It is also a place where I can showcase my current projects, obtain inspiration, keep track of suppliers, and the many other little things that make-up who I am and what I am presently about.
It looks like I may have to purchase some new Sidekick from Bombshell Miniarures.
"Freemosonry, like Noetic Science and the Ancient Mysteries, revered the untapped potential of the human mind, and many of Masonic symbols are related to human physiology."
"The mind sits like a golden capstone atop the physical body. The Philospher's Stone. Through the staircase of the spine, energy ascends and descends circulating, connecting the heavenly mind to the physical body."

I found this Heljan kit in storage, and looking for a quick build for an empty spot on my layou I have decided to build it.
If my maths are correct this tank can carry approximately 32 gallons of liquid, which in this case is oil. Its diamter is 4.85 foot and its height is 5 foot. I built these miniature tanks to sit on a six foot miniature flat car.
"One of history's best known magic squares is the order-eight square published in 1769 by American scientist Benjamin Franklin, and became famous for its inclusion of never-before-seen 'bent diagonal summations.' Franklin's odsession with this mystical art form most likely stemmed from his personal associations with prominent alchemists and mystics of his day, as well as his own belief in astrology, which were the underpinnings for the predictions made in his Poor Richard's Almanack.

THese 1.76 OO, 4mm scale doors and windows work well with my HO, 1/87 scale structures. With my scratch building continuing I need all the doors and windows I can get my hands on. These Wills kits offer some nice alternatives.
This 1.14 hour video features makers from around the globe making miniature furniture to vehicles. We humans have been creating things in miniature since the dawn of civilization. This video is inspirational and interesting.
This is the Wills Garage, one of the three projects I wanted to complete. I have mixed things up by using some of the supplied parts. In addition I used parts that were in my inventory. I chose a different door for the office structure and a different roofing material for the other.
Since the two structures will be placed side-by-side I chose to use only one of windows. A three sided building will be added on the right of the office.
It is not everyday that I find bits on a plastic sprue that are perfect for greeble. I don't have a clue as to how I may use these small cyliders of plastic, but if a need arrises I now have them in inventory.
Layout and assembly instructions for a Pola, HO512, a two story brick watchmens tower.
Although I have gotten side tracked and am working on two other structures beside the three I have already made a the post. I have always liked this structure, but was not inclined to use it considering it British prototype. However I have changed my mind and will make use of the structure anyway. Perhaps I will explain further in the future.
I do appreicate brick building and this structure was an easy build and I enjoyed putting the bricks.
The prosess is as follows. I give the model a good coat of grey or in this case I use white spray paint. Let the undercoat dry thoroughly and dry brush the structure with a color of chose. I chose burnt sienna. Make sure that you have only a little paint on the brush when getting started. You must insure that the paint does not obscure the morter lines. Patience will award you and don't worry if from time to time you over load the paint brush. You do want some variations of color.
