Hello all

I just acquired a huge collection of a bunch of astuff, including John Lab's various products he produced. What I am wondering is, are there still modelers out there who still use this product, since it hasn't been madein quiite some time.  Or since the brand has gone "extinct" no one is interested in buying and using it. 

I am basically attempting to ascertain what kind of pricing I should ahve for it.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

A couple recent posts have started me thinking and rethinking roads and parking lots. Craig BNML2 and Nscaler 88 have brought two different approaches to the table recently.

My scenery plan is based on the idea of a series of discreet scenes.  One of the reasons is that I am using photo backdrops.  A painted backdrop can transition between scenes in a way that photo backdrops cannot.  Has anyone used a curved back drop as a scenic divider?  I've searched forums and not found anything.

On the attached 2 files (which are different versions of the same diagram) The thin lines are the photo-backdrops and the thick line is the track.

Has anyone seen photo-backdrops used this way?

I went to a Hobby shop yesterday and he had  two Fine Scale Miniatures kits. One was of a water tower and shed and the other a coal dock. I have heard the virtues of the quality and craftsmanship of these kits so I took a peek at the price tags on them.The kits were $20 a piece. I checked the kits in the store the water tower kits box was water damaged and was missing most of the wood pieces. It did have all the details and instructions to build the kit along with the drawings . The other kit seemed to be complete as all the bags inside were unopened.
