BARGAIN BIN PAGE

As hard as it is to believe I screw up sometime and make too many, have discontinued sets, forget a setting change, made them too big or too small, or suffer a technical malfunction that good enough to use but not good enough to sell as perfect. So As the pile has grown I’ve started a bargain bin to clear a few out, the prices are a lot lower based on degree of error. Most are “one of” a few I have more than one but generally one per listing and once it GONE it’s GONE …

I have several to list and I’ll get to all them as I have time and check back often you never know what I’ll put there – I know I have a building, some old kits, some N Scale trains that will be going there and again most all if it is one of’s so it you see it and want it, get it as it might be gone next time.

TWO NEW BUSINESS SETS COOTER’S LIQUOR and WHISTLE STOP CAFE

I have two new sets out this week, Cooter’s Liquor which I made for a O Scale build article I’m writing that hopefully will appear in more of the train magazines (I’ll let you know) and the Whistle Stop Cafe which I also made for this build but opted not to use due to the size of the kit. Since this is a smaller kit in O Scale these should kit easily on a HO Scale kit too. Remember the GREEN GRID is 1/2″ so you can get a idea of the size of each image.

(SOLD) MID CENTURY CITY BLOCK – SUPER DETAILED w/ CUSTOM DECALS AND DETAIL PARTS

Well here is  my latest diorama, build with Downtown Deco Coming and Going Kit with some boneyard parts to make the diner. Also assorted other parts, many hand made detail parts and custom decal graphics. Lighted by 12VDC LED lighting and the custom made decals are available in my store (well most are some I made for just this build). The window treatments decals are also available in acetate and clear or white decals. These took a while to build, but I admit I’d work on it awhile and quit and start and quit.

The cars (except for the abandon panel truck) are not included in this diorama, but are available if you want them.

I’ll be adding more pix and info to this post later as I get more time.

DAVE’S DECALS AND DOWNTOWN DECO’S JOINT PROJECT “Worst Block in Town”

It brings me great happiness to announce that I, your humble decal maker will have a custom decal set in Downtown Deco’s latest release “Worst Block in Town” (TBA) from the header of “Pepprock Products” to the many signs and ghost images, all will be included in this up coming kit. This is a full half sheet (5.5″ X 8″) of decals.

While this might be the “Worst Block in Town” but it is one of the best kits and set of decals going out there in the world … this HO Scale (1:87) kit has huge ghost decal for the side to be easily seen even at a distance, plus several other decals to liven up your building including the Pepprock Product headers. As you know anyone that has been into scale structure modeling even for a little while knows of the fine work Randy Pepprock does with Downtown Deco. I have personally built several of his kits and I have really enjoyed them as the hydrocal kits provides a workable dimension not available in plastics from the ability to carve in extra detail and hydrocal takes paint (prime it first) better than plastic or wood any day of the week. If you have never worked in hydrocal, try it and don’t let it scare you, because if I can do it so can you.

Anyway

From Downtown Deco’s Facebook Page (Go there and LIKE it)….

The “Worst Block in Town” inches closer to release. You get the couch, but not the car. : ) This kit will feature a set of signs from Dave’s Decals. HO Scale. Please do me a huge favor & share with your model RR friends.

So do Randy a huge favor and share this with your friend from RR folks to collectors of Scale Buildings.

As of this date (9-30-15) a release date and price point has not been announced, but these will be available exclusively from Downtown Deco and not available in stores at this time. So make sure you get yours as soon as they are available … tell him Dave sent you!
