just wondering if " inspecting man" is going to see any grass growing under his feet soon, well weeds anyway ?

Will, well, I did ask... I think that that looks excellent. I like the names... brings a splash of humour to the otherwise dry subject of paint descriptions.... one has to wonder what they were thinking when they came up with those names though .

That's got it! B) B)

A vast improvement and nicely done, subtle isn't easy but you've carried it off here.

Yes... They do all come from GW's fantasy and sci-fi worlds, so they make sense within that (generally a bit rabid) community. To be honest, I think their main goal in coming up with names is making sure they can trademark them

well weeds anyway

Arg - I'm trying soo hard to resist getting some green in to relieve the grey! Must be strong and finish ballasting/track weathering first

Hi Will:)

I have to agree with the others. In fact that is probably the best modelled concrete I have ever seen. The square slab look amazing.

Will - superb! I love the fact that we're seeing Whitemarsh develop in small little sections never seeing the whole layout... if the sum is greater than the parts then we're in for a treat

Thanks for the kind comments both of you!

On the modelled concrete front, have a look at this layout on another forum - it's 1/12th scale so obviously there's a bit more room to move on the detail front, but the colours are just magic - his concrete is just white and raw umber acrylic and looks amazing. I have to admit I think raw umber is one of the most useful layout colours - I ran out recently and was gutted when I discovered I'd bought a replacement tube of burnt umber by mistake

small little sections never seeing the whole layout

It's mostly because whenever I take pictures I can't bring myself to post the ones with all the clutter and junk around the work area! I've also found the layout hard to photograph other than macros, owing to its long and thin (8'x1') shape. The following might help give some context, plus I'm going to try and do a summary post at some point to explain where things are going with all this.
