Moving along, I finished another building for my growing zombie table, or rather multiple zombie tables. This barn goes with the ranch house I just finished. I put a horse stall and a hay loft along with a ladder inside the barn to give it a better look. The weathering looks better that the pics show, I think the flash messes with the look in the pics. link Here is a few pics of the mass of completed buildings growing in my game room.
A few completed buildings with some weathered cars I have done on the side, about 45 vehicles, so far.
These are the un-weathered pre-painted buildings from MTH, along with a few houses left to do. I still have another set of 8 buildings to weather that are not in the pics.
And another batch done setting on the very top shelf. Everything is in O scale, O guage or 30on30 as they refer to in Railroad talk. Thanks for looking Tom from Texas |

And that would be cool to look out your window and see the Hornburg in the distance. Thanks to all. And Thank you on my game room. When my wife moved in she kicked me to the garage, so everything is in there, and I do mean everything. The only way to add more stuff is to go upwards. I am going to install 4 shelves on the wall when I am done to store all these models. (hopefully) I ask that myself that question a lot…when do I ever game. Sometimes modeling and painting obsessions get in my way. But its mainly about having cool looking games. When I do play I play at Epic sized proportions. After this project, I have vowed only to paint minis in the winter, and small amounts, mainly zombies for awhile. My goal is to have 300 Zombies. tom Just finished another simple house, took me about 20 minutes, but not worth showing, but its on my blog. One of those small plasticville houses under construction, nothing fancy, but its building 27. 18 to go. The building count went up when I added a Prison, that is half finished. ps, I just got in 150 7" telephone poles to paint up……what was I thinking. |

Tom…Where did you get the trees with the white trunks? They look like Australian Gum trees. More specific, what is the foliage made of? Trees shedding little bits of foliage is the bane of my existence. Trying to get the stuff off the table is a nightmare. I'm talking about the foam type such as "Woodland Scenics" uses. |

Hock…they are probably birch trees |

Hello, they are custom made, made out of some type of natural wood branch. The leafs are just green flock, made into clumps using hot glue. I bought them all off years ago. I have about 400 trees, it was rather expensive. I also have some of those woodland scenics ones, that I made, along with some metal ones also. Some are white birches and the other ones I forgot. They did not come based, I based them all using some old Star Wars figure bases that I no longer needed. Basically 40mm round bases.They are very fragile, very. That is the only set back. Tom |
