On man!  That scenery makes all the difference in the world.  Well done!  That's turning into a signature scene for sure.  The only thing missing is that beautifully weathered little Blackstone loco.   :D

Thanks Guys. I appreciate the interest. I still haven't gotten to the gluing and static grass step. I better hope a strong wind doesn't blow through here  :'(


I hope to get to that tonight. Followed closely by TREEEEEES. Then, I believe, it will be a lot less toylike and the flatness and orderliness will be obliterated. The idea (for me) is to make it look like the RR is carved out of nature as opposed to nature being planted around the track plan. I'm rooting for nature in this eternal battle. (I just like that look) ;)


Hope to have more to share soon...John

Got a bit more done today. Static grass over other texture and a handful of trees planted. I still plan to fill in quite a bit with more leafless Supertrees. It seems a shame to "hide" Reading Bob's beautiful engine house...but that's what Mother Nature would do...

John,

Those evergreen trees change the entire look for the better. Well done, well done.

Guess I'm gonna have to say somethin' nice for a change!!
It's lookin' great!  As much as I love the old dead trees, I'm glad that the Floridy cooties didn't kill
all the trees!!!

Ditto that.  If there was a backdrop on that wall I'd swear that was a real scene and not a model.   :D
