Hi everybody,
I'm a newbie here! Also a newbie to modelling and seeking some advice or point me to a source of advice.
I'm a Londoner, being held captive by a wife and four kinds here in Dublin!
Hardly a day goes by that I don't miss my hometown, badly!
I decided to revive my modelmaking hobby from years ago and began to plan a project.
Basically, I'm trying to make a small "London" diorama to hang on the wall of my office.
I've bought some 1/76 Buses, a little black taxi and some street lights, telephone box, bus stop, etc.
Then I got some card Tube station models and the EFE tube train is on the way.
I think I can manage to fit the street lights and put some lights in the train (if I can figure out a circuit!) but am I being too ambitious?
I'd like to find a way to attack the buses and taxi with my mini drill and put some headlights/rear lights/internal light in these vehicles.
Has anybody successfully attempted this or do you know where I could get some guidance on how to go about it.
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
best wishes to all!
Jim
