Lots of stuff back in stock this week to liven up your layouts including a whole raft of Preiser figures in a load of different poses. No matter what era or region you're modelling, there's something for every layout. (If you're modelling in N or TT and are looking for specific figures, just drop us a line and we'll see what we can do).
Oh, and we spent a bazillion hours this week, going totally cross-eyed adding moss & lichen to our new corrugated asbestos textures…
New Corrugated Asbestos Texture Sheets In OO/HO
- TX302-OO Corrugated Asbestos Cladding (Pack Of 5) - OO/4mm/1:76
First up we have the corrugated cladding. This is ideal for the sides of warehouses, barns, sheds & quarry buildings. Nicely weathered (by hand!) and incredibly versatile. - TX144-OO Corrugated Asbestos Roofing (Pack Of 5) - OO/4mm/1:76
And for your roofs of course… we have the TX144-OO Weathered Corrugated Asbestos. This has been both a pleasure and an absolute pain in the you know what to create, with every single piece of moss and lichen added by hand! But my goodness it was worth it because this is going to look epic on your roofs. And by the way, it's the same texture as the one used on the KX117-OO 1960's Domestic Garage Kit we released last week.

WOT! NO N SCALE???
Hi Justin, regarding your kits. You have lots of designs based on country buildings, especially those down in your part of the world. However, many of us have limited space & are modelling more built up "town" areas. There is a definite shortage of models depicting office/shops & industry buildings that have their backs facing onto the railway. Everyone does the Victorian terrace house backs but what about other buildings!!
Best wishes, David
Hi Justin I called in April or May while visiting the UK from Sydney back home now and just starting to build a new layout. Judy moved house looking forward to incorporating the hard standing kit I purchased. Keep up the great work. Dallas
