Mayflowers Movers

One of the companys on my layout will be the Mayflower Moving Company

I am putting the fleet of vans together now , the small moving vans are somewhat older 47 Ford vans.These are Lineside Model kits from Robert Plantz

\after washing them and giving them a spray of white primer I put on the first coat of Matt Yellow

Eventually they should look like this

Plastikard from Slaters, 2mm Spaced Planking, Metal sheething is what I think it looks like. Cut holes for load doors and windows.

Mounted on black styrene ( bought 5 sheets of black styrene 1000mm x 600mm , much cheaper then the A4 sized sheets at the hobby shop )

Airbrushed to get the nice smooth finish these metal walls have in real life, especially when the building is not that old yet. I started brush painting this but didn't like it.

Fitted the windows and doors, corner and middle beams.

Loading platform in place.

Roof made of sandpaper, weathered with chalk.
