And how often do you see caravans modelled correctly?<br />I've always thought that John Betjeman's "Ghastly good taste" and Tudorbethan suburbia were woefully underdone on model layouts.Oddshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15406048947308249483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4367600670436634226.post-75775375950116649772014-11-04T00:42:52.908-08:002014-11-04T00:42:52.908-08:00Ralph's work is up there alongside the very be...Ralph's work is up there alongside the very best...I have admired his work since learning of him in the MRJ. Thanks for that reminder, Martin. You are right about vernacular architecture, few people model it, yet we have still much evidence of the style and origins...I also like that he modelled typical semi's that in their own way are another continuation of the vernacular.Iain Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03633733907566547236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4367600670436634226.post-50353941954548175402014-11-02T06:48:08.404-08:002014-11-02T06:48:08.404-08:00Thanks, Rich.
