Do you ever get tired of modeling trains?

[Steam Donkey]

The all new Sumpter3000, available at a starship dealer near you. Easy monthly installments! Available in any color, as long as its "concrete"! Order now, and we'll through in a free Wookie!

Pete, I'm in awe, my inspiration gauge has blown a gasket!!!......model trains, model ships, model space craft.........anything else? Are you holding out on us?!!

I sure would love to see a web site with your talents on display!

Think I'll dig through my spar parts box and see if I can come up with an articulated, steam powered, intergalactic logging space ship !!!!! Sweeeet!

Pete, Let me add my admiration to that of all the others. Already knew your modeling skills are superb, but what a job of conception! Very cool.

My thanks to everyone for the comments, I wasn't looking for, or expecting the response!!
Vic,
the scale is close to 1/64th, I entered this in a NIMO (Northern Illinois Modelers Open) contest a few years ago and took a second place. I considered that a very high honor, as the competition was beyond belief!
McFortner,
I'll have to check out Starship Modeler, I do have a couple of other models that I could photo, and post. Thanks, I didn't know there was a site for this type of model.
Clerk,
The two figures came from a plastic kit of a Garbage truck, that was reconfigured as a stage for a rock band. I think the kit is still available. The figures are very close to S (1/64th)scale.

Wow! when I get tired of modeling railroads I model 1:1 scale stuff for the house. I usually get tired of modeling when my wife starts talking about me sleeping in the room with the trains.

Looks very interesting that, and it would look great sitting on a schnabel on your railroad

What do you do when you get bored with modeling?

88,
I did spend one Saturday assembling a model 1911 Colt .45 cal autoloader, and then put 200 rounds through it on Sunday. I ocasionally have a show to do, set up the modules, and play with the trains.......in public!, that helps.
