Sauerkraut Distillery - HO Scale, Scratch-Built Paper Model
Mrs. Schnebley's Sauerkraut Distillery is one of the customers of my HO scale Ceresco & Wolf River RR. The model is my scratch-built paper copy of a Bar Mills kit ("Sal Manila's Eggs"). I added the silos and the industrial chimney.I used clapboard siding, corrugated roofing, and other texture sheets from Clever Models. The doors and windows came from online texture libraries, all laid out in Photoshop Elements®. The stone foundation is from the Randsburg Barbershop kit, a paper model by Paper Creek (no longer in business.) The sign comes from somewhere on the Internet. I will add a loading dock and steps when I decide where the building will be placed on my layout.
George Taylor's Randsburg Barber Shop kit is available as a free download in the Architectural section of the PaperModelers.com forum. It's a little gem with very nice textures. And if you're a paper modeler and you're not a member of PaperModelers.net, slap yourself, than go join.
Here is my kitbash of the barbershop into a small shed. Except for a few pieces of stripwood leaning against the wall, it is all paper.
