Title: Totally Spiffing Georgian / Victorian Buildings
Post by: Pappa Midnight on March 23, 2009, 11:04:38 PM

I found some very nice pics of some model rail buildings in "o" scale built by the very talented Geoff Taylor.
Apparently he's done a DVD on how create such lovely models.

Very nice. Good find PM.

The DVD sells for 18 quid. Here's the link:
http://www.model-railway-dvd.co.uk/right_track7.php

There's a snippet of him building a section of a house too. Looks like he hand scores in all the brickwork/ stonework (ouch) but hard to tell. I doubt if many of us could afford these!

I don't actually remember which site I found the pics on ( my Web Fu is weak..) but I found a model Rail Forum with some more shots.
Just scroll down the page.......AWESOME!!!

I don't think he actually sells these ( and I don't think I could afford them!!!)

thejammedgatling: I found the same site shortly after posting my original message. I will be ordering my copy shortly.
