I daresay this terrain project is from the wrong side of the tracks …

(How could I resist a Plasticville pun?)

This a great job in progress, you should buy another set. With your skills you could make them look totally different. BTW people often do add-ons. Maybe a crummy wooden shed nearby.
We all have sheds here. 5 years ago there were some wonderfully derelict trailers, I wish I had pix. The management is tearing them down. Haven't seen any lately. There was one so crummy it should have been in a Rob Zombie movie.

I need to do a trailer park in 15mm, I know there are some HO scale work benches, furniture and other stuff that would work well also.

They look great. Hope you will post the other two trailers when they are painted.

Rogzombie – Thanks brother, I bought two sets to begin with and have plenty of ideas for the next three. For example, since you mentioned it, I did get a little O scale shed to stand up next to one of the trailers, a la Bubbles's home from Trailer Park Boys. Definitely snap some pics of the derelicts if you see any more. This is a popular project and those pics would definitely come in handy.

War Monkey – yes 15mm trailer park would be awesome! check out the HO castings from Rusty Rail

War in 15mm – Thanks! I will definitely post them up, hopefully another one this coming weekend.

Manchu….Great work! Please post how you jazz up the other trailers.

Very nice work,

Terrific work. Maybe you can add some awnings? Well supported sheet styrene could be durable enough since you have terrain bases. The junk was a perfect addition.

Thanks guys!

Cpt Beefheart – the Plasticville kits come with awnings but I decided not to use them because I feel like they obscure too much of the detail from the gamer's eye view.

Good call,never thought of that.
