FAQS AND INFORMATION ON WHY OUR KITS ARE SPECIAL
MATERIALS USED
These items are NOT made from plastic! It is made from Flexstock, a proprietary card stock material on a mild luster finish with detailed Photo Real elements.
THIS KIT IS USED FOR
As a 1/87 scale, it's made specifically for HO scale train tracks and layouts. It will work great with both permanent and temporary setups.
WHY BUY PHOTO REAL SCALE BUILDINGS
There are many reasons people prefer our kits. One main reason is the level of realism that can be achieved without having to paint your diorama. You also dont need to become an expert modeler to build that perfectly finished kit with our kits. Whats more, these kits wont break the bank when making a layout. You have better things to spend your money on after all. Another feature people love is the mini opening doors, interior details, illusion rooms. We even include signposts and clump moss for landscaping your model, something other model kits dont do.
The base can also be easily cut off if needed once the building is assembled. Still, our detailed bases are a cool way to detail your track layout and just one more advantage of owning a Photo Real model kit! So the question remains, why buy plastic or wood kits that can look fake, are more expensive, and require skilled paintwork to even "try" to get them to look halfway realistic! Read on.
INVENTED OUT OF A NEED
These amazing build kits were truly invented out of a need by our CEO who wanted cool looking scale buildings, but he had no painting skill or patience to put together expensive plastic kits that looked fake. Without any painting skills, he was frustrated. He knew that any model kit on the market would take many hours and would still look fake or worse. They could also be ruined once assembled by his lack of modeler skills and by layer after layer of sticky paint. To top it off, he was a picky, unskilled, perfectionist, cheapskate!
Then he had an 'aha moment' and the Photo Real line was born. Now even he could put together scale models that had a wow factor with several features that were never available before. He incorporated 3D illusions, interior details, and a photorealistic look, so you to can say, "wow, I built this myself." Yes, even a skilled veteran modeler will appreciate the level of realism in these models.
