    The Signal Tower (buildings and kits)

    This thread is the second part on “The Signal Tower” build.

    Here I will post all the commercial kits of houses, huts, stations and others that needs to be glued and painted The "under construction" thread of all the buildings!!

    This will be my first one.

    Someone remember it? Maybe “The Secret Trip”? I suppose that will bring me luck, I hope

          Hi all.

          Yesterday I start the signal tower kit.

          I must say, these little kits from Faller are simply great! I primed all the pieces, without worry to take out of the sprues. I use different primer colours, and once dry, I apply just an oil wash. One hour after, I remove the excess of paint with a little sponge. The result is perfect!!

          Now will wait for build and glue all the pieces. The last step, a touch of dry brush maybe....

          The first house of the layout!!

          Thanks for looking.

          Polux

          On the photo, you can see the difference between with and without an oil wah (without the sponge yet)

            First: great idea

            Second: I will follow this

            Third: was the Secret trip 1/72?!?!? You really want me to abandon the hobby.

              This is going to be a very outstanding build Polux when completed, also one that you can really play with.

              Si
