Weekly Report No. 423, CW 49
From Monday, 01.12.2008 to Sunday, 07.12.2008
During the last days, progress at the airport section speeds up more and more as far as the model building part is concerned!
Since the baseplate is installed now (we reportet last week), the first almost finished models are allowed in for test fitting.
The first radar-tower also makes test runs.
We alread introduced this parking garage in WR 416, although at that time it was still in pieces. Now it is completely assembeld. However, it still lacks illumination, a few parking cars,and some smaller important details like stair railings! :-)
As usually there is more than one parking lot at an airport, a second model is almost finished. If you look really close,…
…you can see, just how close this model is built after the prototype.
Last week the steel benchwork and framing was built and welded. Here, however, an additional layer is still missing.
As we don't exclusively work on the airport but also have new ideas for the existing sections of the layout, we have here a few new details from the Scandinavian section where the fishermen-viallage was completey re-modelled.
Of course, we couldn't resist to implement some funny details. :-)
During the remodelling process, some islands also received their share of work, like this very delicately detailled wellness island.
Just in time for christmas, the christmas crib from report no 418 was installed in the new fisherman village.
'Tis the season, not only in Scandinavia but also in other parts of the layout, although the snowmen tend to melt there as it is a bit hotter than in Scandinavia! ;-)
