A conversation with Scalescenes

When Chandwell met Scalescenes! The kits and textures from Scalescenes.com have been instrumental in my modelling journey from complete beginner 13 years ago to where I am now, scratch-building an N scale model of a run down West Yorkshire town set in 1993. I had the honour recently of meeting "Mr Scalescenes" himself, John Wiffen, and we had a friendly conversation which I am sharing in this video. It's a fascinating insight into the man behind Scalescenes for the last 20 years, and into the thinking and process behind this brand of stunning downloadable card railway model kits.
