Watch as I build the impressive G. Wilikers Machinery Wholesaler kit from Fine Scale Miniatures in HO Scale. This kit was released in 1988 and is one of 670 produced. The original list price was $175.

I purchased this kit and put it aside until my skills improved. I have seen it done on a number of New England home layouts and was even more intimidated by the amount of details. Your videos and techniques make is so clear that it gives me the confidence to do it Thank you, Joe

asd asx I watch all your videos so what you didn’t cover in this one you have in previous ones. I like your insights in using Tamiya . primer and Vellejo paint on metal and plastic windows etc. keep up the excellent no nonsense work👍

Very enjoyable to watch. That's a heck of a kit. You did a great job painting and weathering, even with the oops.

These buildings are so cool! You do a fantastic job of building and instruction. really too bad they are so expensive. I'll have to stick to plastic for now.
@asdasx392 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comments. Yes, even the bad ones are expensive. Some of the companies currently producing kits have some in the $40-$80 range. Check out Fosscale Models, Bar Mills Models, and particularly Campbell Scale Models as well as others. Also I have a few videos on plastic kits from Walthers which you can really spend some time enhancing for not much cost.

I'm all caught up, watched all your structure videos. I don't think your weathering went too far at all, it's a matter of taste anyway. You are an outstanding modeler, I will be watching to see what you do next!

I always enjoy watching all of your builds, I recently purchased a Master Creations kit it was made in 1993 and is #75 and called Fanny Schwahn's Confectionery Co. Have you ever seen one before or built it? Its so above my abilities right now to build it. Just watching you build the ones you have, are definitely hard. There are no color photos of it and just a mass of writing instructions, and check boxes once you read the sentences.There are two buildings devided by a walkthru like structure. Anyway the Silver addition came with lighting and sound abilities, with a timer. I cut the selifane and opened it, once looking inside i closed it back up, and realized I've bitten off more than I can chew so to speak. LOL. Looking forward hearing your advice and knowledge of this kit. Sorry for being so wordie writing to you. Thanks. Shane1951...
@asdasx3924 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comments. I never built Fanny Schwahn's. I have seen the box art. You should give it a try. Just accept that the instructions are going to have misprints. Make a video and post here. I hope to do more from Master Creations eventually.

Another awesome build. I really enjoy your painting techniques and I have been trying to purchase some of the paints you recommend. I am not sure if the Vallejo paints are just hard to get or if its due to issues with the virus. Anyway I really appreciate your videos. Thanks for sharing. Dave
@asdasx3924 жыл бұрын
Thanks for sticking around since the early days. My local hobby store has a full line of Vallejo paints, so I guess I am pretty lucky. Otherwise, buy them on Ebay. Tamiya and Testor's Model Master are also good if you can find them. The Vallejo washes are worth buying even if you have to go to Ebay.

Great video again. I agree with you on the quality of the Fine Scale Miniatures kits. I have several of FSM kits Have you ever built any of the Mico Scale Model kits ( Don Reed) not to be confused with Micro Scale Engineering? Would love to see an update of your latout with the builds you have done. Always get something out of your videos.
@asdasx3924 жыл бұрын
I have a video of Micro Scale's HJ Zane Mercantile. I might eventually do another Micro-Scale. I hope to have a layout update video by the end of the year, but I have not actually made much progress on it.

David R Lentz, USA My niche is of 1:25th-scale plastic model assembly kits of vehicles (cars, tractor-trailer rigs, mobile, off-road construction, excavation, erection, etc., machinery, etc.) and the dioramas that visually envelop them in a wordless (usually; signage is an exception) narrative. Even so, I delight in learning of the techniques, kits, settings, etc., of others’ ventures. Some I would like to see in my preferred scale (G gauge’s richer cousin). You need make no apology for your “mistake” in assembling one of the buildings. With one eye visibly higher than the other, I cannot determine what actually is “straight” in terms of physical objects. It occasionally shows in my illustration work, especially pen & ink (or, fun with serious myopia, cranio-facial mal-alignment, etc., requiring that I bring my eyes to round 10 cm of the work surface to render with cold, achy, bony fingers exquisitely fine detail). I also grew up in what was (still is, the last I looked) a small, old farm house-in the middle of a small city, no less, even with a barn out back!-that almost was as asymmetrical as the Burrows, the “one-room shack” nigh a dozen storeys tall where the Weasleys dwelt in the Harry Potter motion picture series (2001-2011, Warner Bros). For that matter, I wish a model railroading company would make a series of “Buildings in Cinema”: the Burrows, cited above; the old mansion in Psycho (1960, Universal Pictures, Alfred Hitchcock, Bernard Herrmann); the house in Home Alone (1990, 20th Century Fox, Chris Columbus, John Williams); the Brady home, in The Brady Bunch television series (1969-1974, Paramount), the Bunkers residence in All in the Family (1971-1979, Studio 41, CBS Television City/Sony Pictures Studios), all in O gauge; Hogwarts Castle (as above, in the Harry Potter film series), the palace in Emerald City, and the fortress of the wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz (1939, MGM, Victor Fleming, King Vidor, Herbert Pope Stothart), all in the same gauge (HO, N, Z), for the constancy of scale.

Nice build. As a rule I like the FSM kits but this one is a little different. Maybe it's being exposed to OSHA too much but I really don't care for that long stretch of exposed edge on that loading dock. I think I'd add railing there. Even in the old, days, I'd be afraid of losing inventory or people over such a long unprotected edge!

Rafter tails 😫

Rafter tails are one of the many improvements you will find in Bar Mills kits. Their solution is genius.
