They made Thunderbirds here!


It's always interesting to see what other people are building, especially professional modelmakers whose ideas I might be able to nick for a future project.

Simon Atkinson teaches modelmaking and works on some really interesting projects. The best ones, large scale model locos, end up in the countries premier magazine for large scale railway modellers.

Others turn up on his website, and this one really appealed to me - a 1:25 scale model of the Century 21 studios complete with a couple of sound stages with Thunderbirds sets.

Such clean modelmaking and yet some familiar challenges. They were counting bricks to scale parts of the model - I've done that!

You can see the full details on Simon's website.

There's a walkaround video on Facebook too.
