Default Maddog Madigan's scale garage

Well after drooling over some sweet looking garages. I thought my pictures would look much better. Rather then using my lightly dimmed work area I've been using. Time for a new change.

Started with a trip to Home Depot. Picked up some mdf and some paint.

Started with the base first. Wanted to give the floor a realistic look.

Then moved on to the walls.

No for the final paint, a Royal blue strip.

Now for the teaser shot. Not finalized yet. Just had to get an idea what size comparison I was dealing with.

More to come...

Thank you, it's been awhile since I've collected things. I knew eventually I would start one. This won't be the layout, just wanted to show how big this came out to be. Porta potty is not staying either, only for the construction period.

Move that port-a-pottie outside before it stinks up the shop!

Nothing worse then a steamy one early in the morning.

Thanks 2shot. I've been rearranging the layout. Waiting for some garage doors. Going for a 2 stall bay look.

It's coming along, just keep changing the layout. Maybe two rigs fit ok. Getting a little tight.

Good guy by the name of Brian, not really sure if I would get whole lot of flack for posting his .com name. I've been trying to tell him to grab a vendor star and spread the word. I'll pm you his info. I want him to post his work on here as a vendor. He has so much more to offer. His nitch is 1/14 scale semi.

2'x4' mdf 1" thick. Not good for moisture tho. Keep off of concrete too.

I started my scale shop today. I'm not getting overly nutty though. Quick question: where did you get all your scale accessories. I had a file for such info and somehow misplaced it. Looking good so far! Greg


Edit...just saw the earlier post. PM me if you can and tell your guy to pick up a Blue Star. With items like this, he'll not only earn back the entrance fee, he'll certainly open up a great channel for future sales.

I'm working on it, I'll hound him again about it. I'll send you his info but tell him, I sent you his info. Brian is also a great guy and will make custom stuff too.
