Every once in a while I build a diorama just for the fun of it and what you see here is an example of that. If you have any questions feel free to touch base with me.Cheers!

Great work Randy,  It really looks great. That would be a seller for you.

After much looking (about a year and a half) I finally located "Angell's Pillow Factory"  that you put out awhile back.

I've wanted it since I first saw it and have been kicking myself that I didn't order it immediately.  It was in Washington State so I had it shipped

to my Son's place in Spokane. He'll be bringing it home when he comes at the end of the month.  Can't wait............

Spokane has a ton of great looking old brick buildings, especially downtown.

Thanks to all who have expressed interest in this project. If you have any other questions feel free to contact me off list. Cheers!

Now I just need to have you build me a bunch of them and I'll be all set........lol seriously you've given me inspiration  to build some that have been on my mind for quite some time now. Great job nice detail very fine piece of modeling.

Just my 2 cents worth, I spent the rest on trains. If you choked a Smurf what color would he turn?

Hi Randy,

Great work and this gives me a chance to send to you a thanks and keep up the good work!

That is a great re-use of my favorite building!  Triangle Fruit --  I used your color recomendations on it but it does look nice darker!  

Now if i can only figure out a way to use that building again, on my too small layout!

They are not decals. They are paper signs that I created & then applied with white glue and a little TLC. I know, it lloks like it woud be a lot of work but actually it was easier than using decals. I provide complete instructions w/the kit.
