World class.

The phrase "museum quality" gets tossed around a lot but this build definitely belongs in a museum.

Thanks everybody, unfortunately I can't dedicate a lot of time to modeling so my updates are not so frequent... (Am I the only one who has the impression, our daily work is getting more and more complex?)
Either way, here is the latest update: I completed the gangway that leads half around the abutement. To me it became a nearly endless bothery and in the end it is very fragile because of the tiny soldering joints. I will be happy when it is fixed in place - what you can see, is only a provisional installation. I am looking forward to the most pleasent part: the weathering

Impressive.

And, yes, work and the world in general are getting too complex.

Hello Peter,

always impressive your work, which I like to follow again and again.

[Bill Gill]

Peter, that gangway is so nicely done, it looks good even before you add your usual amazing weathering.

Thanks very much, guys!
I want to take this opportunity to introduce the two guests on the gangway I received this morning. Modelu3d.co.uk printed them (of course for me ) in exact 1/50 scale.
They are some of the best figures available and it's an innovative company who offers an excellent service. I will have to modify them a little bit, but they fit perfectly in this period (1870-1890).

The figures really do look good and are appropriate for your supremely adequate modeling. -- Russ

[Chuck Doan]

They look great!

[Hauk]

They look great!

The Modelu figurens are 3D scans of real people dressen up in period costumes. The figures are printed on  a B9 3D printer.

The cost is quite reasonable, and as many has already has noted, the quality is excellent.

Hello Peter,

have you ever thought about having yourself scanned? I did it and it's always a special highlight at exhibitions.

Congratulations great work.

[Bill Gill]

The figures look good there. What material are they printed with? I had seen Modelu figures printed in a hard red wax used for making jewelry masters.
