Very nice build.  Where did you find the tools?  If they are scratch built they are outstanding.  I am guessing that you embossed the bricks.  Again very nice.  I am very impressed.

Yes, the bricks were sculpted from putty. The tools are from the bits box. I think they came with a Schuco Volkswagen mini diorama.

Fantastic work - I love the level of detail. Where did you find the fire extinguisher? Is that from the diorama set too?

Yes, I think so. I actually built the gas station a couple of years ago, but moved it to my new home today and as I had it off the box I seized the chance to take some photos...

Absolutely beautiful, almost too much details for one building, but of course it's never enough! ;)

I know I have looked at the Gas Station once - but every time I look at the pictures I spot something new!  :-*

Wow.   Just amazing.  The work area looks just like the place I used to get my old 'vette worked on.
