The Red Lion - A BRM project


Another of my projects features in the May BRM - and is even shown on the cover.


The project uses the Hornby Rose and Crown pub. You might think that a ready-to-plant building leaves little scope for modelling, but there's a lot that can be done to make a model more individual and realistic. I touched up the finish, re-branded signage as the Red Lion, and set it in surroundings including a beer garden, playground, and car park. 


For a simple project, it was a lot of fun, and shows how a little work can really enhance a ready made building.
