Been working on a 3d printed model I made based upon an historic train bridge in my hometown – pic attached for reference. Finished the printing & assembly this week.

This one will be a suspension bridge

It takes some tweaking for each print for sure and understanding how best to print each model. I’ve test printed a model I did of my own house.

My family has always made those Christmas villages with the ceramic buildings but I would like to create something more realistic and in N-scale. Looking for tips/tricks or advice. Thanks!

Are your buildings kits or scratch built? I love the ones that I can see

Nice work!
