I have completed another building to include in the MichLTC portion of the
ILTCO layout planned for the NMRA 2007 National Train Show to be held in
Detroit on July 28 - 30th.
This MOC is a model of the Griswold Building, a midrise structure designed by
architect Albert Kahn in 1929. It primarily uses old brown and old light gray
for the facade.

WOW!
The building itself is a great MOC, but what surprised me even more was the
quality of your photo work... the thumbnail on the LUGNET front page made me
think it was a picture of the real building. VERY nice!

Thanks for your comments. Besides trying to emulate the proportions of real
buildings with my MOCs, I try to photograph them in natural light from typical
street level vantage points in an attempt to add realism. One unfortunate
problem is that I have a small backyard with trees on every side so it is
difficult to exclude “giant” trees from the picture (Photoshopping them out is
too much work). -Jim
