I really don't know how I did it, but I managed to find a little time to spend on the layout over the weekend (well I suppose its not really a layout yet if ever), and typical of me rather than spend it on something useful I used it all up working on a little redevelopment.

 

My intention for Lugsdale road was to depict a little LMS station on the outskirts of a typical Northwest industrial town surrounded by terraced houses and typical industrial buildings. On the far side of the station I had envisaged that the towns industrial area would start and I set about producing some grotty factories.
BEFORE

The problem I had was that I was not too happy with the factory I had started building so it sort of just sat there without any progress being made. That was until this weekend, and I got my hands on my stash of card.
AFTER
What I thought would be a bit of a quick project, after all, I jut needed to build a roof really, its just eaten up hour after hour of precious modelling time :(.

Lots of work remains to be done on this alternative building, in fact it probably needs more work now that it did before I even started.

 

The problem is now, I have run out of modelling time and I have no idea when or where I will get some more from, the other problem is I'm not sure which building I prefer, I think the new one is better as its adds a little more interest and does not hide too much of the buildings behind?

 

What do you think?

 

As ever Happy Modelling :)

For my part I think the new building is a good deal more efficient. It doesn't dominate the scene as much, and the double roof and chimney give a better sense of the beginning of a sprawling industrial area.

 

And I'm not just saying that to make you happy!

I think I prefer the new building too, the scary thing is not the thought that somebody was saying something to make me happy but that SOMEBODY ACTUALLY AGREES WITH ME - Spooky
