Danny Quinn Recreates Battle Scenes By KEN EDWARDS Seven.teen-year-old senior Danny Quinn spends some of his free time at an unusual hobby. Quinn builds miniature battle scenes at the Madison County Library. His work on such scenes at the "Battle of Get tysburg/Picket's Charge' and the "Battle of New Orleans" comes to life on a small scale plan. - Each of the projects involves a great deal of time and work. For example, each miniature ob ject must be carefully painted by hand. Most of the parts and accessories used in con struction come from mini-railroad building sets. They are often purchased at regular hobby shops or toy stores. However, instead of using the parts on a train set, Quinn takes the trees, grassland people and works on them until a brought-to-life small battle scene is recreated. The average time to bring such a model from a picture in a book to a life-like scene is about one week. Quinn enjoys doing this type of work in his free time and has been at it since before high school. His hobby ties right in with the fact that he also enjoys playing war games and is interested in drama. Each of these is a vital part in understan ding and relating to such a hobby. . Quinn is planning to attend North Georgia College and then plans to go into the Army as a se cond lieutenant. The work which Quinn has done was on display at the Madison County Library on Main Street in Marshall. Photo by N Hancock DANNY QUINN sits behind one of his miniature historical scenes. This particular scene took four days to complete. Danny said finding the Civil War figures is the hardest part of making the dioramas.
