Bill D, The plain looking building next to the brick one is made from a piece of foam board bought at Office Depot for a couple of dollars. I also used Grandt Line windows and stained the building with pastel chalks.

 The figures a 1:48 resin cast made by a company called Verlinden that I found on Ebay.

I'm not sure if I've posted this here before, but I've had great success with Brennan's wooden fence kit, also!

The fence looks awesome! And those hobos look like they're right off the Eastern Front: what figures are they?

 Chief, It was easy, but it does require some time. I started at around noon and had it set on the layout a 4:00 PM. The "must haves" are a soldering pencil/iron that puts out some good heat and a decent pair of wire cutters. Every minute was worth the effort, I honestly don't believe there is another O scale chain link fence kit offered by anyone else on the market that matches it's quality.

Jon, while I am sure Brennans are great kits, It is obvious you are a craftsman!  Great work.

Wow.  Looks like it would take patience.  Was it easy or does it take patience?
