Application of forced perspective. The loco is in HO Scale, the first cooking tower in in N Scale and the second half replica one is Z Scale. The distance between the loco and the cooling tower is 2 inches that is filled with scenic material.

A solid 35 hour work completed in 2 and a half days and what a feeling it is to see the trains running after all the hard work. The real G9s were being tested right outside while the little one was having a ball inside - sublime…

Laying tracks for a 40ft long double track layout in 2 days is no joke! But when you’re in one of the most important landmarks of the Indian Railways, the motivation is tremendous. The little engine is very excited to take on the challenge as well.

It was fun to demonstrate basic weathering in the art meet up at @tworkshyd on Sunday. The model was a @precision.model.works BOBYN prototype that we launched earlier in the month. It was super fun and Iam thinking of leaving the unweathered side as -is to demonstrate the difference that weathering makes.

Finished this commission work last month in collab with @omkara.creations and with the help of @love_for_chandu , @iam.perfext.act and @aeviternal_99 - a nice relief project to refresh the mind while handling all the production pressures at @precision.model.works

One of my weathering staple, a humble HB pencil!

First round of sound, track and wiring testing of a HOm/HO-BG dual gauge Indian Railways model train layout that I’m building for @anshumig - still a long way to go but I’m really excited to get to the next step, that is laying the track for the HO-BG section which will be completely hand laid. Stay tuned!

Paint is still wet!

Calling it done.

Well, you all asked for it, so now it’s filthy!

Clean side, or the dirty side? Which one would you prefer?

The story of my first serious model train layout is quite interesting. I haven't worked on it for last 2 years and 1 year ago I ripped all the tracks up to convert it to DCC, but never got a chance to get back to complete the job. Now that the layout is lying there all ripped up, waiting to be restored, I am spending more time building the business for Precision Model Works, but I really intend to get back to completing the job sooner than later. One thing to motivate me is to look back at its journey and remind me why this little layout is so important: It not only changed my model making, but everything that I am today started with this little model train layout.
