Modelling landscapes and designing railway layouts is my passion from a yong age. I take great care to detail, and realism. If you prefer, you can pay in 2 instalments, 50 percent on placing the order, and 50 percent on completion. Please ley me know, so I can adjust the demo on Etsy.

2 - All the buildings and railway station, as shown on the photo, are assembled by me from Metcalfe kits.

4 - The pine trees are from Bush and carefully decorated by me with Vallejo light modeling paste and sprinkled with Woodland scenic soft flake snow. The deciduous trees are made by me from twisted steel wire or wooden pins, with poly fiber, and or coconut fiber, covered with Vellejo light modeling paste and than sprinkled with Woodland scenic soft flake snow,
