Malcolm Mitchell's FINESCALE MODEL MAKING SITE 
Welcome to my web site that celebrates those beautifully engineered locomotives of the GWR in miniature form AND ALL THINGS OF RAILWAY INTEREST.

The latest locomotive to roll out of the 'A'Shop is this 'Armstrong' 4-4-0 in 7mm scale.

A bit of monochrome adds to the period atmosphere!

The King class were impressive beasts!

It's a job to know where to stop when it comes to cab detail!

All the photographs on this site are of models built from my own etched components and kits, unless credited otherwise. Some scratchbuilding is also involved in a few of the locomotives illustrated, and over the coming months I hope to bring you more stage-by-stage construction shots and tips that will illustrate the methods and techniques that I use in producing the type of models that you see here. Please come back often!
