KX117 Scale Model Scenery kit 1960's Domestic Garage

New release - pre-orders invited - expected June 2025. preauthkernow

A versatile 1960's style garage for detailing street scenes on your model railway layouts and diecast dioramas. The design is typical of many garages of this type that can still be seen all over the British Isles in various states of repair. Supplied with a choice of red brick & pebbledashed walls. Both finishes feature plenty of weathering for a worn & well-used finish.

The roof features heavily weathered cement board/asbestos style corrugated roof with lots of moss, lichen and general weathering, plus a nicely rusted ridge strip.

The kit is supplied with laser-cut parts for ease of assembly with no additional painting or weathering required for a "Realistically Better" finish straight from the pack apart from the windows, doors & laserboard parts, which can be quickly and easily painted & weathered with acrylic paints.

The garage also features white painted red brick interior wall finishes with flaking paint and other dirt & grime. For a little extra detail we've also included two car tyres and a ladder which can be used to add extra interest to the scene.

Doors & window frames require painting before the kit is assembled which can be done with solvent or acrylic based paints. We used a a matt white acrylic primer for our doors and windowframes which we then dry-brushed with burnt umber, buff & slate grey artists acrylics to create a weathered wood look.

Additional detail is then added to finish the building with downspouts & bargeboards.
