pirouets

As the last post said, what to do next as I seem to have stalled over the last couple of months, so I have decided on a small plan of action.

 

Rather than work on anything big, over the coming month apart from running the layout I am going to do just those little jobs such as:

 

Add gutters and drain pipes to buildings

Get flowers in the flower beds.

Look at where people should be and the cameo's

etc

 

It will take a couple of days to get through but to help me on my way I have ordered 2 things, a puffer bottle to have a crack at static grass, and some bracken stems from Scalelink to help me create some weedy and overgrown areas.

 

I reckon the beauty of this approach will be I will probably find I have spent 2 hrs in the shed, doing lots of things, rather than getting bogged down in creating yet another building.

 

I've also decided to sell off some of my steam stock with as for the main line side of the layout it is definitly going green & blue diesel, however all my steam stock that suits a branchline scene will be kept as I still swap the branchline back to steam on a resular basis.

look forward to seeing the results - I too am in that phase with Summat Colliery, I've bought some min-ature ivy and flowers and have experimented with making my own foliage too. I've also been toying with the idea of the bracken stems since seeing them on a layout in Hornby mag
