Wild West In the Barn 9/11
« on: August 28, 2011, 22:57:20 »
So I decided to organize most of our western stuff before I have to pack it up. It is one of my favorite layouts and has a special area in the barn.

I first will show some overview shots of the area. The trains go on the outer edge of the dioramas on both top and bottom. I used to use the area under the tables for storage but I ran out of room for displays so I set up scenes there as well. I have a lot of work to do yet such as custom signs for all the shops and more building to finish.

I was thinking of taking pictures of each building/event going on in the diorama so I have a sort of record of how I set it up. I hope you enjoy looking at my obsession 1/2 as much as I enjoy gathering it all up.

This is looking to the west




This is looking to the east

Your collection in the barn doesn't resemble "Ground Zero".

I am continually amazed at the quantity of playmobil you have collected.  That is a very nice set-up.

after we get done playing with it all it sure looks like it too me   :lol:

Oh, it was just for rounding off the date  to 09/2011 and not putting 08/28/2011. When I pack it up I want to remember where I was at in my obsession  :P

I am now wanting to look for a lot of bison now that they have been discontinued, and signs, and, and............ 8}

Be careful of what you ask for as some of the buildings inhabitants will test your abilities as a edit button slinging shoot out sheriff  ;)

Yeah, I've dreamed of having a whole herd of bison since I was a kid, and now they've discontinued it just when I'm getting back into western stuff. :-\
