Goods shed in Airfix Magazine

A few months ago, I tripped over some MiniArt building kits in a model shop. The Goods shed looked very interesting. Just the sort of anonymous building that is required in the background of a scene but is actually quite difficult to make. The tendency is to produce a special building without the requisite amount of bland.

For £18.99, compared to a similar size (292mm by 80mm) resin building, it's not expensive either.

Despite being 1:72 instead of 1:76, the model would fit on most layouts. However, it would sit even better with correctly scaled military models so I've built it, fixed Airfix Model World magazine in my crosshairs, and given it a shot.

The result appears in the May 2013 issue, sharing space with a Vampire Jet and the Monkeemobile. It seems I am headmaster at the "Skills School", my parents will be so proud...
