Tom, My God, What's the secret with the water? Dennis

[ACL1504]

I haven't done much work on the layout since this past Monday. I worked in the yard two days and that episode took a few days off me. Meaning I was to sore to work on the layout.

Getting old just plain sucks; however, it is better than the alternative.

Tomorrow I plan to start adding the plexi-glass to the fascia on the east side. Notice the word "plan"?

Dennis,

Thanks for stopping by and for the question.

Here is what I did. Look/read what I put on page 149 of Part 2 of the Atlantic & Southern build thread. Let me know if this doesn't answer your question.

Wow!!! That came out perfect. Reminds me of Okefenokee swamps in Florida. When I was there.......Dennis

I wouldn't be surprised if someone thought this was a photo of real life instead of a model, superb water and the lighting makes it even better.

Dennis,

Thank you. I painted my Suwanee River Lagoon after some photos I've seen of spring fed areas. Here is one such area.

Jan,

Thank you for the kind compliment on the water scene. I'm very pleased with how this area turned out. I think the lights reflecting off the water add a bit of realism to the scene as well.
