Details

On such a small layout there is just a couple of 3D printed staithes, painted a base of Humbrol 72 with a wash of dilute black and red oxide uprights. 

Bansen or more precisely Materialbansen

 
 
Building the small brick office 
 
  
 
It is a Model Scene laser cut wooden kit
 

First, it was given a wash of dilute Humbrol acrylic 113, allowed to dry and then lightly 'stroked' with a Daler Rowney Sketching pencil 'Sanguine Drawing' and the excess rubbed off with the ball of the thumb. 

 It is, without doubt, the most infuriating but satisfying kit. The floor must be installed as the card side walls warp, a fillet of PVA around the wall/floor joint holds everything in place. I like the worn paint around the door handle.



This bizarre situation is a couple of solutions to keep the roof of office flat whilst the glue sets. The kit fights any and all attempts to complete the build.
 

Just needed to paint the underside of the roof, the gap at each end has been covered by a soffit and somewhere in the workshop there are some minute brass pins that will be turned for the door handle.
 
The coal yard needed a fence, gate as well as staithes.
