Thanks,
I really like the idea about the fine sand paper and just add lines. I looked up the Model Railroad offers on the internet and was not impressed with any of the them. But the sandpaper, that might work. I will stop at LOEW's tomorrow on my way home. THanks for the tip. ANy others out...
Hi,
I am attempting to make a diorama of a street parade. Is there a good Lemax or other company product that makes an American city street? Or perhaps a kit (do not want to spend a lot of time building) out there. I am building the stores and shops and need a street with stripes and stuff...
I was referring to when COnte had the playsets in stock and were steadily coming out with new stuff for the Alamo. It was a wonderful time for me because the Alamo is my favorite era. I did not mean to imply that the Conte product was different, just the availability. Back then, CONTE announced...
I already have all 7 sets but I wish that he would finish. I was looking forward to his calvary that he claimed were in the works. As everyone has said before me, he does great work but not very realiable. I keep hoping for a return of the old Conte. Maybe some day!!!!!!!!!:D
Wow, K&C are going to retire some Alamo figures. I have never seen any Alamo figures being retired before. Have you? I thought that Andy would not retire the figures as a favor to his San Antonio Store to always keep the supply on hand. Interesting.......
I bought a bag at Walmart. Excellent for small stuff to build. I have used them for ladders, boat stacks, boat masts, windows, benches, tables, etc... Very handy.
Rob,
I enjoy your rantings. Keep posting. As for my predictions, I suspect that we will hear about the USS PUEBLO Naval Vessel and some sailors to hop onboard to come out in September just in time for the OTSN show! Any takers?:D:D:D
Re: Seriously - Is CONTE Still in Business ?
I too was able to fill in the gaps in my Conte Alamo collection. I now have almost everything by COnte on the Alamo but I am missing atleast 3 sets that I know of right now. But I will keep looking and hoping.:D:D:D
I too wish to congratulate you for such a great effort. It was Awesome! The Almao is my all time favorite and I am attempting to do the same with my collection. You have inspired me to continue on my quest. Thank you.
:D:D
I have the K&C facade and also the 7 Conte Alamo playsets. I also have the Brazo Playset that included all of the adobe bulidings. All fo them will work fine with the Alamo. I also have some of the CTS buildings of that era. Good luck with your search. :)
