HO Railroad Camp
The Railroad Camp buildings have been installed behind the sawmill. Before you see those pictures I thought you should see the ultimate in work spaces.
I know your envious but someone has to be the best. LOL
I will build and install the other logging camp kits along side this one. Taking pictures of buildings installed on the layout are challenging but you do the best you can.
All of the wood was stained using theink stain method I mentioned in my Loco and service shop posting. I think it is easy and looks good when you don't want to make each board a model. You can always add more weathering. Except where you see painted boards in the models no other weathering was added except some additional staining with the same ink mixture.
As we always say thanks for looking and get them out of the boxes and build them!

Great outcome on the “camp” ... I put mine aside when I received a couple of other brand kits as gifts and began work on them....I’ll return to my rr camp soon

Not that anyone has asked for it but this is a drone shot of this section of the layout which will be mostly Sierra West buildings. There will be another peninsulia parallel to this one packed with FSM kits eventually. That section will be posted on another forum someday.
You can just make out the recently completed Railroad camp buildings behind the sawmill.
Thanks for the picture. I love looking at any and all railroad pictures posted here.
That is so cool. Sometimes ideas just pop from other guys layouts. Very nice setup you have there sir!!
As Ken has alluded to, a video of you layout under construction from the perspective of a drone would be something unique I'm thinking. Think you can put something like that together for us to enjoy? Normally I would ask for more track level photos, but this type of video might be a first for the forum.

I also have a few copies, which aren't as high definition as the instagram page, on a Facebook page, mitchell niemiec.
Thanks for checking them out.
I love to see them all together, such as Mike Engler, Bryan Brown, SteveDrees (sorry steve) , Robert. G and I think Mark.G along with several others are putting these kits all together in layouts.
Your mill is an accomplishment on its own and the rest build on that. Great work so far, I know there is more to come.
