On the Siding

[Casey Feedwater]

OVT&L's old oil tanker sits on the siding next to the machine shop on a hot July day.

Casey:
Your modeling and photography skills continue to amaze me. This forum is so much better than a print magazine. Keep these shots coming. You really do a great job of creating a sense of time and place. Thanks for sharing your work!

What fantastic modeling....and photography!

 

[spitfire]

Beautiful work in so many ways. The modelling, weathering, scene composition and photography - all are top notch!!!
Between you, Shamus, Robin, Blake, Ralph, Tyson and the rest of the fine modellers here on the Gauge, we could easily put out our own magazine! But heck, we don't have to - we've got the Gauge!

cheers

Thanks for the nice comments, everyone.

Here's a flatcar with a sled load on the same siding. Its donkey is in the shop being refitted...

C'mon! Those can't be models - they're real!

While everything about your work impresses me Mike, your wood (like that sled ) really blows me away! Doesn't really matter if it's that sled or the side of a building or a piece of rolling stock, it's always superb!!!

 

[Casey Feedwater]

Thanks, guys.

Here's a different view of the flatcar and sled.

Ok, Casey, I thought we'd had this little talk before about you passing off prototype photos as your modeling work...
Heh Heh...juuuust kiddin'!

Casey. Are those models or real life? Can't tell the difference.

 

[GNRail]

Looks like you could walk up and hop right up on them.

Amazing

Thank you for the very nice words, everyone.

I know some of you have seen the cars before, but I had a lot of fun putting them in "new" settings and rephotographing them earlier this week. I've got a few more I'll post in the near future.
