Took a Christmas walk with my family around the Hamburg harbour area ... and found this abandoned crane (exhibit of the museum of work) ... just wondering, if the weathering has turned out well - or is overdone ... ::)

That pic of the "Hobo" is great! What a funky little loco! Looks like it would be right up Mr. Birrell's alley.



Bill Gill

A couple photos of small urban brick buildings that have details that modelers like.

Ray Dunakin

Either of those would be great to model! I especially like the fire escape on the second building.

I love the backside of buildings.

Too bad people park their cars and block the view.

darrylhuffman

More from Emmett, Idaho.

Emmett, Idaho alleys

Darryl, Yeah, sometimes the cars just ruin the mood. Here's two more.
The first one already looks like a model built from the scrap box. The second one could pass for a lot of places.

Ray Dunakin

Great stuff. I like the green-painted addition on the upper floor of that one building.

A couple from Northern Idaho, taken 10 years ago.

Darryl

This abandoned truck on the side of a road is a diorama waiting to be created. The photographer lit the truck by placing a light under the hood and another in the cab. Maybe one of you guys will build something like this and win a prize. -- Russ

Russ, neat photo effect. That truck could be in some Halloween flick, roaming the countryside looking for unwary hitchhikers :)

There you go Unc you could do it out of paper to make it look like metal.
