On the Road No. 3 – a builder’s yard
I have finished the yard of J. Peterson Ltd on Grove Road.
For the yard I used the following details:
For the storage of the aggregate and sand I created staithes from brick.
The cement sacks, spade and fine basalt are from Kotol, a German supplier of excellent detail materials in hO. Because I didn’t use any OO gauge detail materials in the yard I found them very useful to create the right atmosphere for a builder’s yard.
The piles for the aggregate and sand I made from some scrap card and toilet paper. The piles were than painted using pigments and water. The aggregate pile is finished with fine basalt. The pile of sand with Venetian earth pigment.
The corrugated iron plates are from a kit of Clever Models.
Then I made some pictures to create the on the road scene for my story.
I haven’t made a choice yet, so if you have a favourite please let me know.
If anyone has any experience with putting a driver in an Austin KX from Oxford Die-cast, please let me know.
And as always suggestions and comments are appreciated.
Kind regards
