Title: Modeling Plaster Structures | ||
| Scale: | Last presented: MER Princeton 2010 | ||
| Description: I
have quite a few plaster buildings on my railroad. Seldom do I
see any on other people’s railroads that I visit. These are, I
believe, unique structures that can be modified and kit-bashed too.
Sometimes you can change the whole look of a building just by painting
it differently, installing a different roof, or adding additional wood
or plastic trim. My clinic is a Power Point presentation about how I build plaster structure kits. I’ll also address the issue of attempting to build your own custom made plaster buildings and also cover a few that a friend has made over the years. It runs 20 to 30 minutes depending on questions asked and comments made. I try to have a Q&A session at the end but questions are welcome at any time. No special tools are needed. Most of what you need for this you probably al-ready have. A lot of time is spent on how to color bricks and stone for a real-istic looking finish. A four page handout is available and I would appreciate it if the sponsoring organization covers the cost of copying. Please note that this is a “Living” clinic and will be upgraded as additional in-formation and photos become available. |
