Piping Shrike Models

21/04/2026

So as I some of you all will notice that I am slow to get models out. It is because I work a normal job (which im climbing up the ranks in now) a family life as well as general daily life.
It is because of this constant time struggle i face daily that i have chosen its the end of the rails for me and Piping Shrike Models.
Im at the point im over a lot of things to do with trying to run a small business and a daily life, its not easy.
Life is short motto at play here now.

I will continue to do 3d Models mainly for my own interest and might adapt a ted emmes method of doing things.
I will be at Steamrangers steam fest next month where I wish for a fun day out, chat with some of you and start the sell off of kits.
What's left will get sold off at amre.
My range of stuff will get marked down as time goes on and after amre the website and most likely this page will be closed down and I revert back to a personal life and a hobby in model trains.

As i stopped taking on service work a while back i only have a couple jobs which will get done and returned.
Sales on the website will continue till amre and what I have stock off will get marked down soon. What is print to order won't get marked down much or at all as its not printed yet.

So cheers all and all the best but for now im mostly signing off from fb and will check it periodically.

To the ones who helped me out big big cheers,
To the ones who fu**ed me over or made my life hell 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
To the ones who i struggled to get jobs too. It wasnt what I wanted but sadly its where life went for me and I am really truly sorry.

Cheers
Anthony

Spotted this old gem in my travels today. On a property as a shed by the looks,

So so close to having these done, few things to add and tidy up but they test and print great.
SAR o wagons for narrow gauge.
And also broad gauge.
I need a fleet of these for my layout im slowly building as the Wilmington line had 30 of them

I know these have been done by phoenix and oer but not the narrow gauge ones.
