May be my best model: Wells Fargo Stage Coach, scale 1/10
« on: December 14, 2018, 08:34:25 AM »
Wells Fargo Stage Coach

2012 is finished a wooden stage coach in scale 1/10. Was build from a Amati kit as present for my wife, with build service. I improved a lot of parts, it mostly wood, mahogany, walnut, ... wallpaper inside. Also PE up to 0.8mm is part of the kit. The suspension is made from real leather!
The base or floor is made from real red oak veneer and a thread, like done by ship modellers.











Two different Winchesters are part of the kit: wood, copper pipes and many PE parts.


There is also a build report, but in german.
If you want to know more or about some details, feel free to ask!

I hope you will like it 8)

Cheers,
Frank

Building scaled originals instead of simple models is undoubtfully your signature. Congratulations on this beautiful coach.
