Description: About this Scale Model Masterpieces/Thomas A Yorke Product: Concrete Backdrop Kit #2 "Scratch Buildin' Series" Kit SCALE MODEL MASTERPIECES #SMM3212 HO/HOn3/1:87-Scale Labstone, Wood, Resin & Plastic Material Size: HO-Scale 96' x 16' (1-7/8" x 9-1/8" x 5-3/16" tall) See Image This impressive kit is based on a structure standing in San Bernardino, California. The original cast concrete structure (shown above) was built around 1920, but it has seen some changes over the years and our rendition incorporates these. Our patterns reflected the uneven and rough wooden form board impressions as well as "oozing" concrete from between them so typical of cast concrete structures. The castings for this backdrop kit are from our "original" Thomas A Yorke masters which reflect all of the detail of this structure and more. This kit is composed of Labstone castings including the partial roof with parapet wall and "tar paper" roofing already cast in place - simply paint & weathering with Doctor Ben's Weathering Stains. Grandt window castings and Scale Model Masterpieces details (listed below), Cyclone Roof Vents are included along with our usual comprehensive instructions and plans plus a color photograph for a truly easy to assemble kit. The scale 108' x 16' size will dwarf two 50' box cars along side! More details can be found on the website ... More details can be found on the website. Read our Blog: How-To: Build the Scale Model Masterpieces "Practice Wall Kit" Posted by Richard E. Bendever on 9/20/2014 Over the past few years, since we purchase the Thomas A. Yorke Ent. Structure kit line (now Scale Model Masterpieces), we have been slowly updating many kits, including the "Practice Wall Kit" (#3101 & #9101). Instructions to Weather this Product - Seriously, this is NOT rocket science-it’s just weathering! We applied two coats of Doctor Ben’s Instant Age Weathering Solution (#1152) diluted 50/50 with Isopropyl Alcohol (70%) allowing the IA to dry between coats & then applied diluted Doctor Ben’s Realistic Rust Weathering Solution (#1150) down the steel plates imbedded in the ramp. Scale Model Masterpieces Detail Parts are composed of UNFINISHED /UNASSEMBLED Natural Resin, Labstone, or Color-Cast Resin parts-Assembly & Finish Required. Assembly using Doctor Ben's Hypo-Cement for tiny delicate parts as well as most plastic cements and painting may be completed by hand or an air brush. Want to know how to weather your finished model?
