| Here
is the roof of the car wash. As you can see from this picture, it is
cracked, simply because of the lack of structural supports on it. I will
add a layer of plates to correct that. |
 |
| Here
is the front of the carwash, you can see the tiles that are on the
bottom of the carwash, and I will add the 2x2 black tiles to the front,
along with a path for the vehicles and some plants and such. The green
plate was only temporary until I got some more large light gray
plates. |
 |
| Here
is the front of the car wash, where the vehicles will enter. As you can
see, I have laid out the driveway pretty much, I will see if I have to
change it for the pavement yet or not. I have a selection of black 2x2
tiles with arrows on them that I will use also. There is a sidewalk for
Shell employees to get in the car wash also. You can see the device for inputting
the car wash codes or money. |
 |
| Here
is the entrance of the car wash, the white beams here are for the
rinsing of the vehicle first, followed by the brushes. |
 |
| The
next step is waxing, and the white beams near the brushes do that. The
small tank you see is the wax. In real life, they have large barrels for
the wax and foam, but I don't know if I will include that yet or
not. |
 |
| The
final step is drying, and here are the white beams that do just that, I
put 1x1 headlights there for now. I don't know if I will add more or
not, I am out of white ones for the time being! |
 |
| This
picture shows the tracks for the cars to go on, it would be nice to do
one that really works, but for this project, it is a little out of reach
right now. |
 |
| Here
is where the canopy will meet the shop. I finished building the canopy
border, and I hope I have enough 2x2 yellow tiles to get the top of it
corrected, but I think it will look great. The green you see on the top
of the shop id temporary, I have more gray baseplates coming from Bricklink. I will also had several AC units and some vent piping on top
as well, but that is a minor detail. |
 |
| Here
are the doors for the bathroom, I will cover up the open parts somehow,
maybe with tape, and I will try to get some bathroom stickers as well.
You can see the lights on the outside, but I think I will change them to
either red or yellow if I raise them up, I don't know for sure just
yet! |
 |
| Here
are the interiors of the bathrooms, I need to add a roof, and some vent
piping as well. I will add some 1x1 corner parts for the sink, and a
faucet, I have to find a few, I have them somewhere!!! I will add
something to the toilets but I don't know what yet. |
 |
| Here
is the front of the shop with the canopy removed. As you can see, it is
a pretty nice looking building, I hope my 2x2 tiles can cover it all.
(The awning) I will change those light fixtures as well. I will add some
other things, like an ice machine and the like. |
 |
| Here
is the front of the shop, and the doors. I have ordered a pair of white
opening doors, so it will go a little better than these. |
 |
| No,
this isn't a war zone, the contractors seem to be a little messy! : )
The doors will be the coolers, I have more coming, and I will do the
interior last. I might add a support pole for the middle of the roof, I
need to expand the area that the roof rests on, it is a little floppy
right now (Well, OK, a lot floppy!) |
 |
| Hey
you! Get out, we are not open yet!!!!! |
 |
| Here
is the other side of the station, nothing interesting except for those
Shell logo's, and they might be sacrificed for the gas pumps!! |
 |
| Here
is the near side, the counter will be right behind the bored train
company worker. The slots in the sidewalk will be filled in, I am
awaiting yet another order to finish it. |
 |
| Here
is a shot of some tiles I have ordered for this station, I have a few
Shell logo's left, some blue tiles for the handicapped "Differently
abled for the P.C. Factor), the yellow ones are for the parking spots,
the black ones with yellow arrows are for the car wash. The clocks were
for Chris Leach's airport terminal, another GATS project. |
