New York: Wednesday, April 28, 2010: The Z Scale Basics / Micro-Trains Line® Co-Op Build Is Completed We'd like to invite you to the final article installment of The Co-Op Build now online at Ztrains.com. We'll add some trees, a bit of water and a few fun details to this diorama. This completed scene is now winging its way to Oregon where it will be one of the raffle prizes at the 2010 National Z Scale Convention this coming weekend, April 30th - May 1st, 2010, hosted by Micro-Trains® Line. We've really enjoyed building this small scene for our readers and look forward to making the winner of this diorama a happy Z scaler! http://www.ztrains.com/basics/shed/shed_6.html John Cubbin Ztrains: Z Scale (1:220) Model Railroading Information
Thanks Phil, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Trying to see if I can line up additional article series like this in the future. John Ztrains: Z Scale (1:220) Model Railroading Information
Well it truely does look fantastic that is for sure. The low water is an extreamly convincing look. I have to ask, did you have to ship it overnight express to get it there in time?
Thanks for the nice words folks! This was a fun little project and I'm glad I could contribute a bit to the convention. I hope whoever wins this scene enjoys it. I actually sent it 2nd day air... it should be arriving Thursday afternoon John Ztrains: Z Scale (1:220) Model Railroading Information
John, what a beautiful piece of work. And what a wonderful contribution to the World of Z !:thumbs_up:
Thanks very much guys... I just received a note from 220dasjournal... they put this little scene on their site too! Amerikanischer Minidioramenbau mit John Cubbin | 220dasjournal It's really very nice to hear this scene is well received John Ztrains: Z Scale (1:220) Model Railroading Information
As always... another master-piece by a great artist! Truely a work of art! I hope we will see some photos from the winner of this piece with some trainage on it. Thank you Mr. Cubbin... for these pieces, your great web-site, and your continued support and promotion of Z!
Thank you Alex, I just wish I could have gone to the convention... sounds like it's going to be fun and beyond that... a great chance to pick the brains of a lot of Z scalers! John Ztrains: Z Scale (1:220) Model Railroading Information
I'll agree with that. I wish I could attend. I feel like there is much to gain from the community, and I think that we as Z scalers are on the front lines of so much uncharted waters. To be able to meet face to face with so many I consider friends would be so much fun.
