Hope it is not a repeat.  Hope it is interesting.

I would love one of the Woody Joe castles for my layout

All it takes is your credit card...

Well.. This isn't tempting at all .. *cough*

 

I wonder where on my future layout 1 or 2 (or several) of these would fit ...

Wow that Sensoji Temple is REALLY impressive! (with an equally impressive price tag !) 

[Martijn Meerts]

Sensoji temple is 1/50 though, so it's probably fairly big. If it was 1/150, I probably would've gotten that one at least, eventually 🙂

Woody Joe models are very impressive! I’ve been drooling over doing one for a long time! Even better they are nose doing lasercutting. Somewhere I remeber seeing the actual woody Joe site.

 

I have a couple of the old woody Joe temple models. These are 1/150 made from just very finely cut and milled blocks. They are not realistic layout models but fine all natural wood type representational models. The newer stuff is made to be more like detailed models. I really want Kiyomizudera, didn’t realize they had come out with that! But then you need a big hillside/mountain to place it on!

Himeji castle looks amazing, and entirely too big to fit anywhere 🙂

 

I do wonder what the measurements of some of those castles are though, some of them could look really good on a hillside.
