Looks awesome John. I didn't realize the trestle bridge was right on the edge of the diorama edge. What's the black circle on the edge?


Curt


Thank you for the kind words - the black circle is the edge of the diorama baseboard.  It will be cover with rocks and other scenery materials when this goes in position for the last time. I have to figure out what I'm going to do with the cliff face. I was covered with trees but I don't want anything that will block the view.  The next landscaping project.  ;)

Really looking sweet, John.

Cheers, Mark.


Thank you, Mark.  I have a few prototype pictures that I have been referring to as I'm doing the scenery - I'm real happy with the way this one is working out. I have some issues to fix but we are getting closer. A pond, farm equipment, detail castings,  and some cows and horses in a completed fence, will make a big difference. And we haven't forgot Jerry's red tractor. I need to paint it.

John - Your work on the S&S is truly magnificent.  I doubt I will ever get back to Michigan to visit you and drool on your layout, so please keep the photos coming.

Thank you for following along and the very nice words.  Today's project was a maple for the front yard.  I wanted some fall red.  We will see how it turns out.

Thank you my friend. I have put a lot of hours into this one - I hope Dario thinks I did justice to his kit.

Good Morning John from the snowy Southwest. Saw the pics on this thread and i want to let you know that i think they are marvelous. All that work on Dario's kit resulted in both a beautiful structure and marvelous scene. Wonderful work my friend. More pics please. Now to get back to shoveling.

That whole scene looks great John. I love the track disappearing into the woods. I also really like the trestle leading into the area. Great stuff.

Hey John:

That is one beautiful farm. I especially love the barn.
