Ohhhhh that's a really cool idea! Please keep us posted on how it goes! 

I did an (interior) museum display base for my 1/32 SPAD XIII a while back, along the same lines, with signs and barriers and such. It never fails to get comments from anyone who sees it.

Looking forward to seeing your completed version.

Thanks Guys, I may make a mock-up soon.  Maybe I should finish my tanks and Howitzer!

What do you think of this?

It needs work.

Maybe this is better.

That is a grand idea. I suppose you already have the models that you're using for the entrance to the museum? I like the idea of the 105mm howitzer & the M24 Chaffee, also remember the US military was already using the M26 Pershing tank during the Korean War. Just my 2 cents. Good luck and I hope to see some progress pics soon.

Great project, Ziggy! 

Awesome project Sir Ziggy .

Thanks, TigerII, John and Willy!

I will be building these three,

These are also in the 'Forgotten War' Group Build.  I may even post them in the armor section.

Ooh!

       Go for it. I will follow . We had an Air Museum on our " N " scale layout dedicated to Seaplanes even a "Black Cat". The reason we don't now is the Cats and other aircraft were obviously not " N " scale!

Thanks TB, I someday plan on building an HO layout with a sailing ship, probably the Artesania Latina San Francisco II with a navel or maritime museum, but that is down the road from now.

I found the 1/72 cars I have been sitting on for maybe ten years.

Maybe a little unrealistic to have a million dollars worth of cars in the parking lot, but these are 1/72 scale cars I have.  Maybe I could beat them up a little or claim a wealth group of war vets came to visit.

Lol, maybe the cars are a little expensive but I think they work.

Like where you're going so far, looking forward to more! 

Museum admission is a bit high...

Car show?

Hi; 

 The best ship for that would be the Gorch Fock or the U.S.C.G. Eagle.They are not quite as big!

Hi;

     You can get lettering sets from a couple of train sites. I did some signs with multi Level lettering using H.O. and N scale lettering. That and a nice frame made from Evergreen plastic rounds and squares, became the nameplate for a ship model after being sprayed with Antique Bronze metallic -courtesy Val-Mark Chevrolet! That also gives the lettering, depth!
