BiffMalawi Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I was big into model trains when I was a kid, loved planning and building the layouts just didn't want to play with them after. Fast forward about 30 years and I was walking down the street and saw a sign looking for a builder at a local dollhouse store. I went in and got the job. Worked there for about six years, until my art studio took up to much of my time and I had to quit. I still do some commission work now and have some cool projects of my own in the planning stages. I just need to find the time. I can't for the life of me remember where I left it. I am looking forward to stealing ideas from y'all... sorry I mean gaining inspiration from. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selkie Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Welcome to the GL family. Since you are already a miniaturist, you certainly understand the addictive nature of the art. We all love pictures so after you have reached 5 posts you can start an album, please do share some of your work. I'm in the process of doing a completely new layout for HO trains at the moment - base is equal to two 4x8 ft sheets of ply with a prospect of a bridged area to another small layout.

havanaholly Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Welcome to the little family, Biff. In addition to building dollhouses and making everything that goes into them I build the building kits for DH's N-scale railroad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdlnpeabody Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Welcome to the forum. I've always wanted to build a model railroad, but I'm sure once it's built, I wouldn't find much interest in watching it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BiffMalawi Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 Thanks for the warm welcome. I'll post pics when I have some. Unfortunately I was not allowed to photograph any of my work at the Little Dollhouse Company so we will have to wait for new work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
