Mallard Ducks

Having recently created a small stream coming out of a swampy reed bed, I decided it made nice habitat for some wild ducks.

I have had some farmyard ducks and geese in my collection for about 45 years but they depict the typical white domestic ducks. Since I wanted them to look natural, I decided to repaint two of them as a pair of Mallards.

Preiser sheep 14160 and 14411

I have always regarded Preiser as a top quality manufacturer of HO scale people and animals and some time ago I purchased two Preiser sets of sheep.

The first set is 14160 which includes a shepherd, a sheep dog and six sheep.

The second set is 14411 which contains 60 sheep.

Ducks and geese

A small farm pond provides a home for the ducks and geese...

Chickens

I have some chicken sets dating from the 1960's and 1970's. A small girl has the duty of feeding them every day...


Pig Sty

Someone has the task of feeding the pigs - what a job...

Farm with Faller Obersdorf backdrop

The area next to my mountain road will be farm land. Fences, a flock of sheep and a nice farm house have been ordered and my daughter painted my pigs and some of my old cows and two horses. Initial tryout looks realistic and I am pleased with how the backdrop works...

Mountain goat

I like to add small details that observes can find... like a mountain goat peeping over the hillside
