managed to find another, more intact, oil storage.





And a group shot, I now have 2 of them, was nice to see this one still had the pipes attached. Now on the hunt again for more of the same. Could be a while before I find new ones though.




Found an old railway tanker with broken top and snapped off wheels in one of the boxes of junk I picked up. 1 quick paintjob with a dry wipe technique....looks awfully good, even if I did paint it myself  :blush:

Looks good!
I especially like the storage tank. The thinks disturbingly ready to spring a leak somewhere...

Where are you finding these? They make great pieces of scenery.

2nd hand shops, flea markets (online and normal ones) and when I want a new kit Ebay or a online retailer. But costs for a new one of these are around 30-40 euros, 2nd hand 3-10 euro. It is a bit hit and miss though, as you never know what will pop up. Could be I find none till July, or 3 in January. I'm aiming for 6-8 of these. The small oil tank makes a good one for behind any building in almost any location, I just do those in between for fun.

Totally awesome!  I'm seriously behind the curve in making scenery.  You have given me some real inspiration there!  Thanks.
