At a recent model show I have been asked several questions on how I did things and thought I might relay a few of the hints here
I usly work in HO so painting small art work can be a chore to day with our computers has solved a few of those problems by doing the art work in larger scales and then reducing it to the smaller scale has worked well for me (ie) the people for my seat wagons and also so of the art work on cage boards or wagon sides most were done in 1/2 or 3/4 inch scale and then reduced to 1/87th or HO I then print to either card stock or Photo paper
I have animated my rings in my big top display with mirror ball motors they are battery operated so there is no need for electrical outlets once we get them set up the batteries last for several weeks and thats with out turning them off
another question we almost always have is were do we find our figures
most of my figures are commecial and available thru hobby dealers but I always say you have to look out side the box so to speak a foot ball player or socker player painted a bit different makes a good
preformer and then doing a little creative changing of arms or legs makes a big difference in how they are presented
