This time let's have a building as the Model Of The Week.
What we have here is the biggest structure we've built for Bron Hebog so far, a modern steel framed barn on Cwm Cloch Farm which sits inside the S bends beyond and above Beddgelert station and sits at the right had side of our layout.
The design was prepared by the Artistic Director, working from photographs, and turned into three dimensions by myself in styrene.
The frame was built using I section styrene from the Evergreen range, which was where I also obtained the corrugated skin for the sides and roof.
The final element was the low breeze block walls between the uprights of the frame for which I scribed the courses on plain styrene sheet.
The completed model was sent back to the Artistic Director to be painted, and fine job he made of it too, don't you agree?

I agree - it is a fine building. Evergreen styrene is a huge boon to us modellers. :)
