Ok, I'm having too much fun to wait until these are done. This is my lower grandstand area that I just put the base down for. I also just Sculptamolded it tonight ( I love this stuff!). It needs a LOT of cleanup, paint/turf, and detailing. BUT, the Artin grandstands are almost done. I still have some trim and signage to do. Not bad for an $8 accessory, and 1.50 in Basswood!

Overview:

Restrooms

Refreshment stand

More to come...stay tuned to the same BAT Channel!

Thanks for the comments! The stands are Artin, not sure where you'd get those in the UK, I think Racy is what it's called in Europe?

Anyway, the back of the stands has a large, rectangle opening. I used a simple, flat piece of Basswood, made the windows for the stand, or the opening door of the restrooms. I hot-glued them to the stand. The wood covers the hole from the inside of the stand. I also covered the sides under the stands as well so it was completely covered underneath.

As for the figures, I've got a mixture of about 100 on order. Scalextric spectators, MRRC spectators, and Scalextric and the new Monogram pit crews. I'll see how I like those. The Artin stands come with 6 figures each, so I also have those to paint. I may still get some Froemters if not just to compare them with those I'll already have.

I'll post more as the turf, etc. gets done.

Rene,

They do come in the red/yellow/blue originally. I was going for something that matched my track.
