BOSTON LARGS WORKS: NEW TRIO

Friday 9 September 2011

NEW TRIO

The latest models to be completed are these three 4mm (OO9) carriages which have been scratch built in styrene and hand painted for the client.

They are, from the top down, Festiniog Railway carriage 116, FR 114, and ex-NWNGR / WHR Observation Carriage (aka the 'Gladstone Carriage')

My current commission project is a 7mm scale model of FR Observation Carriage 100. You can read about progress with this model on the Bron Hebog blog

Enquiries are always welcome, you can get in touch by emailing: bostonlargworks@btinternet.com

FAQ

Q: Do you only make models out of styene?

A: Yes. I've yet to find a carriage or wagon I haven't been able to build.

Q: How much do your models cost?

A: It all depends. Every model is unique. I charge clients a very reasonable hourly rate plus cost of materials used to make their model. If you want a simple model with less detailing it will cost less than a more complicated prototype with more finescale detailing included.

Q: So how will I know what it will cost?

A: This is discussed with clients before they commission a model. If it's a repeat of a design I've made before I will be able to give you a clear idea of the likely final cost. I keep clients updated about the progress of their model and the running total of charges.

Q: What if I want to cancel halfway through?

A: That's no problem. You pay me for the work done up to that point and I will despatch the model in the state it has reached.

Q: Do you make locomotives?

A: I don't make chassis or mechanisms but I have successfully built diesel locomotives to fit on an N gauge chassis.
