Re: Coroplast scale buildings

Ok, not quite like the reference pic but hey, not bad for a one nighter build. :)
Only had red pin striping, not sure if I'm going to paint the roof grey or leave it white?:confused: just needs stairs and lights and another one done! :D

My 8'X20' job site trailer....:)

I'm on a roll! Don't stop me now! :D

Another great idea Reg ! Guess I have to make another one for cargo and incorporate some lift points for the crane..:cool:

never thought of that when I made this one with a 3ft skirting. Oh well, more the merrier.

Painted the roof and I think looks better than white. Made some steps tonight. Was trying to think of what to use for round hand railings when suddenly remembered something I got at the dollar store awhile back. :D
Just needs a coat of paint and should look good.....from 20ft away. :lol:

Thanks Frizzen. ATCO makes all kinds of sizes but I was limited to the 4ft width of a sheet ( wanted the ribs to be vertical and all one piece) but still created a scale size. It measures out to 7" wide , 17" long and 9.5" tall. So , about 8' X 20' X 11'. :)

Re: Coroplast scale buildings

i just had an idea tonight for making another look to my future scale buildings and it works so well I just had to share!

Using nothing but a light diffuser from a fluorescent light fixture I trimmed the ribs to make a brick pattern, layed on top the Coroplast and sprayed.

Here's what the very first test pieces look like. So easy and can use same template over and over. :). This kinda puts me back in a building mood.:bounce:

Re: Coroplast scale buildings

Such a teenage lament. :D:lol:

Re: Coroplast scale buildings

Yeah you know, when your eighteen:rolleyes:

Re: Coroplast scale buildings

No pain , no gain..... Making myself a nice large template for the brick look template.Time spent now will pay for many paint jobs going forward.
I'm going cross eyed cutting and looking at it but getting there. :lol:
