BACKDROPS:

I can paint realistic custom backdrops for your layout…. either directly on the wall or on lightweight panels that will
be mounted onto the wall behind your layout. Using good reference the client provides, i will draw and paint the
exact building or scene you want. I can also make adjustments if the space on your layout is too small. I will adjust
the image, but still be correct in perspective.

CUSTOM BUILD:

My husband Rick is a master woodworker and can scratch build anything at any scale– you provide the reference, good or poor.
Good reference is a focused detailed photo or plans. Poor reference is an out of focus photo, then we have to figure out the
details on the building in order to to draw elevations, floor plans and roof plans . We cut the material and assemble it. I paint
the final product.
