Building buildings

Yes, well, sometimes impatience takes over, and you want some instant results.

So a few weeks ago I bought a couple of LGB Wild West building kits from Ebay Mike, and then SWMBO bought me a Piko building kit for my birthday the ACME liqour store, which I'd like to re-name if poss.

Interestingly, and possibly unsurprisingly, the Piko building is of exactly the same manufacture, construction details, size, etc as the LGB two.

They are quite simple kits, and I'll post a piccy or two, but there are two main challenges:

  1. to fix everything down so that it doesn't blow away
  2. to fix two of the buildings closely together side-by-side
All of the LGB/Piko/Pola pictures of these and similar buildings show them scattered randomly around the place, but looking at my photos of Skagway, the buildings nestle together. OK, given that I've only got three buildings :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: and probably only room to put two side by side, we're not going to end up with a massive township like Mike (Beavercreek); however, even if the concept is slightly tongue in cheek, I do want it to look essentially credible :cool::cool::cool:

Watch this space :wait::wait::wait::wait::wait::wait:
