Building a Ghost Town 4

The Set-up begins. Not sure of the palcement of the  buildings. I may move things around in a day or two. Saloon still needs it's roof and mine needs its back. Interiors will start when everything is set.

Building a Ghost Town

Working on a remake of my Saloon. Ugh. Just a note. I am no carpenter, so sometimes its trial and error. In the end it all works out,and I still have all my fingers. This is a good thing. First picture in the base/1st floor. 2nd is the 2ndfloor/front. It will be 10ft tall when its done. I pray we do not have 50 mile-a-hour winds this October. Otherwise ,it will be doing it's impression of Dorothy's house in the Wizard of Oz. Still needs a roof and porch detail. It will get there.

First new Halloween Prop

So I made this today.
I needed a piece to fill in the Bride scene in my Halloween display. It is on a balcony above the garage ,so it will not be seen up close. I could have made it functional, but maybe next time. Its just foamcore and paint.
Thanks to TheJacksonManor.com for the 13hr clock face. 


 Below is the original clock I copied.
