That ground texture and colour has come out well. The long curvy spear-railing fence too.

I vaguely remember a discussion about whether the GWR used both types of fencing in the same location, but can't remember the conclusion!

Edit: But wait, this is a prototype location so your model gives me my answer, I assume.

Looks excellent, Andrew. Keep up the good work.

All the best,

Nick. 

Your buildings are excellent. This appears to be Dad's only photo taken at Cheddar and shows none of them! It is also well after your period, I guess, from the shirt button on 6421.

Yes I have photos of Cheddar which show wooden platform fencing and spear topped fencing on the access roads.

the wooden fencing was replaced by chain link fencing at some point too!

This is really very lovely.  
 

Might I suggest some kind of neutral backdrop, as the rather nice wooden blinds are rather obvious in your photos?  It’s a perennial problem, the backscene on PD is about 18” high, and this isn’t enough for some photos. 

Yes it will ultimately have back scenes showing housing, Cheddar gorge and the Mendip Hills behind but I should try to add something whilst I’m still working on these boards in the meantime
