"It's Time We Shared These Photos".... Not everyone is a "craftsman", none of us started as one, and many of us just don't aspire to contest type modeling, but we've never seen it as an issue, the key to our hobby is creativity & fun... and with that in mind the part of the "Moose" dedicates itself to the many of you who take the hobby very seriously, and maybe a few of you who are less hung up on "details" and are just trying to have a great time. We thank you all for letting us be a part of your hobby. With that in mind this "Moose" is being used as a vehicle to share some of the many unpublished photos that have never been entered on our website but that deserve an "atta-boy" for the modelers that took the time to constuct, photograph & share their efforts with the rest of us. Art Fahie, BMSM  Terry Hansley strikes
again with this older photo of the HO scale Wicked Wanda's.
'Nough said !
 Eddie Landrith sent us his HO version of Swanson's to share... thanks Ed... keep up the good work !  Yet another version of Wanda's as submitted by Fred Williams.... look at those curtains.... hmmm... can there be some "modesty" in that establishment after all????  We don't get many tinplaters building craftsman kits so when we saw this O-scale diorama by Elmer Butler we knew we'd have to share it !  Two version in "n" scale of "Whistlestop Junction" by our good friend Brian Curry... neither one of them looks exactly like the original kit !  Bill Brown of Syracuse fame.... (he is a "Master Model Railroader", a little genuflecting wouldn't be out of order here) sent us his version of the "Gravely Building".... Bill, hope you don't mind a little kidding around here ! Bill's layout was on the cover of the August issue of Model Railroader magazine !  Jeff Kruger took a stab at the S-Scale version of Booty Corner, it's good to see the eye-for-detail that so many of our kit modelers seem to have.  ON THE OTHER HAND here's a kit WE DON'T MAKE... Canadian Caj Menke did "Booty" in N-Scale... and WE said it couldn't be done ! |
Some Photos From The Guys...  Cliff Powers gets the nod on an incredible scene that features our HO-Scale "Booty Corner"... absolutely a head-turner !  Pete Catalano is an O-Scaler from Nova Scotia, nice job, we know there's alot of HO stuff out there and enjoy the opportunity to manufactue some of our kits in other scales as well.  Our "BASIC" kit "Majectis Hardware" has undergone an impressive transformation by Dick Weymeyer... that's some of our "Inst-Fence" as well as a BMSM "Covered Stairwell" in this photo as well. Really cool!  Jerry Zaret sent us this photo awhile ago, and it's way past the time it should have been shared with the rest of you... an "O" scale version of Buster's Barber Shop. Nice weathering, especially the shingles !  Terry Hansley almost frightens us... this guy is SO good... Terry we gotta get together on some projects one of these days ! The photo says it all.... "Waterfront Willy's" in HO scale (plus an addition to the left)  Bill Tweedy of Mass. has been "morphing" into quite a modeler for some time now... his version of our limited-run "Fishing Shack At Rockport" is pictured above.... great job.  The "Amazing Bortle" (John Bortle from NY) sent us this terrific photo of "Shipyard Ale", our false-front kit. We couldn;t have done it better (maybe not even as well!) Thanks John !!!!
