San Miguel Herald, an O scale plastic kit

Some pics of the O scale plastic kit I just finished.

The San Miguel Herald (or SMH for short, as the content always make you shake your head...).

 

I´m quite satisfied with the guy with the block and tackle.

 

The old man proof reading todays edition....

 

 

The chimney that I made from a balsa core covered with cardboard bricks.

Hi Graff,

We haven't heard from you for a while. You did a nice job on the SMH building!

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!

I love the 55 gallon drum being lifted by block and tackle -- a depiction of the famous quote by a politician, "I never argue with a man who buys ink by the barrel."

Thanks!

I edited a picture of it in b&w.

It looks a bit more historical like that...  Big Smile

Graffen, Wonderful work as always and a pleasure to the eye.  I've not forgotten taking inspiration and instruction from your great Downtown Deco structure build tutorial.

Thanks and regards,  Peter
