I've been fooled a number of times already, and with this one, I lost the perspective entirely - were they G scale chairs photographed to look very big so the railway looked very small? Rather like Father Crilly trying to explain to Dermot that the small cows were actually big cows a long way away!

well, walt, the only way your going to find out.. is to nip up and vist,,:)
 
sorry, my mistake, but the offers still there:thumbup:
 
so after sizes the toilet bowles (seated figures..come on, im not that small!!)
i started on the cubicals. again, a simple measure up to the floor plan, and a drawing, to sizes,. cut out with the skanly knife.. its 3 passes on the line, and its cut.. 2 passe and you can snap the foam bord, but it leave a bit acting as a hinge.. if your strugllying, use a fresh blade..scoreing in the planking, and adding the cross brasceing, a gain, foam bord, love the stuff. superglue set in seconds ..dont stick it in gob.. sets faster:rolf::rolf::rolf:

painting it as a free standing structure.. it can still be lifted out of the toleit block for painting/maintances.. the idea is to enable repainting.if/when required ..something, i like to take on bord when building my models
