This fellows work is just wonderful in HO scale.

This is a great build log of his 1940's auto garage.

Chuck Doan's work seems to have inspired the first diorama. The second, with the boat under construction, looks much better in every way. The auto garage is of the same quality as the boat diorama. In all cases, his presentation and lighting are excellent. Thanks for posting the link. It's inspirational. -- Russ

These are nice and bring to mind one of our sadly passed away members, Chester.

That is some fantastic work! The scratch built, 1/87th scale drill press is especially impressive.

Wonderful work, amazing that it is so small.
