Hi,
My main interest is garden railways built to a scale of 16 mm = 1 ft. We have a garden railway and a portable exhibition layout which is scenic and has model figures on it, some of these models are commercially made others are recycled mostly from charity shops; this is an example of one which started life as a brass bell.
As bought.

Gaynors great with the paint Tony
Great job in bringing out the beauty Tony - well done!
Looks great.
Excellent paint job!
I thought she looked good in brass, but your wife really brought out the detail with the addition of paint. She's a keeper (wife and fish maid!).

That came out really nice, Tony and Gaynor!

I thought it looked pretty good as a brass bell ... I had no idea how much detail was lost in the monotone, and now it looks FANTASTIC!!!
Looks like its china and not brass.
I enjoyed the restoration progress, it really looks good now.
