Presentation, presentation, presentation...

Hello :)

 

Some people have commented in the past that I have made a good job in the way I have presented Highclere. To me this is just as important as the modelling itself so I have been paying special attention to the way the whole layout looks and the way it all fits together. I seem to spend ages making sure all the little things not only work and fit together, but fit together easily. A good example are the braces that hold the pelment, I have made sure that these arent made to fit a particular position but to be all the same so they can be fitted anywhere. I think its little things like this which will hopefully make taking the layout to shows that bit easier.

Although its the wrong pelmet for the baseboard (the other one isnt finished yet) it hopefully shows what the finished layout will look like. The text has been laser cut from plywood and left plain wood so it contrasts with the black background.

 

Still loads to do. I honestly dont know what state the layout is going to be in at the Expo in July!

It's amazing how such a small change can make a vast improvement. It finishes it off perfectly smile.gif

The devil is in the detail Missy - but if you get that right - the result is devilishly good: and in that respect you score top marks every time :)

 

The pelmet looks great. It has high-impact and is nicely proportioned.

I know there's a pride in presentation - but I think most people are just going to be delighted to see your layout in whatever state of development it's reached - and equally happy to just meet the person behind it all. Relax, smile and wave :)

It will be more complete than I can hope to be with my effort considering where I have got to thus far.

 

Don't worry. Be happy.

I think we would all prefer you maintained your high standard. Don't worry about what needs to be finished you could be tempted to rush. There is plenty I'm looking forward to seeing.

Hello :)

 

Thank you guys. That has helped loads as I have been in a bit of a panic for a while now trying to get my head around how I was going to get so much done in time for the show. Now I feel alot better about bringing the layout to the show in pretty much the condition it is now. As some of you have said "not to rush things to get them done for the show"

 

Thank you.
