Johnstone Construction Co.

My project for this month was to complete the structures for Johnstone Construction Co.. I've been disappointed with the way a couple of the previous buildings looked once I placed them on the layout - just structures sitting on "bare plywood." So this time I went a bit further than I usually do, and added some scenery around the buildings.

So here it is ... Johnstone Construction Co.






















The road that heads into the back drop in front of the brick building was originally intended to run off into the distance, but I've now decided to make it a dead end (with suitable signage at the back drop), and extend the road that runs along to siding into Davis.

I also did a little more work on Pitmon Oil, which is just across the road from Johnstone Construction Co., and here's a photo of the (not quite) complete scene.





















Thanks for looking in.

Regards,
Ron

  1. Hi Ron, looks very good. I am sure Greg will like this a great deal more the Johnstone Packaging On my SFRSD.

  2. Great job! It does look very nice. I would add some more stuff outside (pallets, scaffold, maybe a pile of lumber or garbage cans). Rarely are construction companies that neat.

    1. Hi Karl, and thanks. Yes, you're right about needing more stuff lying around. Unfortunately I didn't have much that I could use in my scrap box.
