Hi all, I figured I'd try putting up a poll for those of you who build buildings.

(...) The poll's not flawed, just incomplete. The real answer is somewhere in between or a little of both. I often find myself building buildings completely void of interiors for train shows largely because they're for 'show' and won't get much(or (...) (21 years ago, 5-Sep-03, to lugnet.general)

		Re: New poll: how do you handle building interiors, backsides
(...) Decent poll, unfortunately you missed the option I use: Fully detailed interiors with liftoff sections (I feel this generally actually works better than swing out - swing out is nice for some things though - like if you want to have ceiling (...) (21 years ago, 8-Sep-03, to lugnet.general)
