Popular Post KNP Posted October 3, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) A few odds and ends I will construct a temporary backscene for these shots from the back of the layout to the front. Took this as a trial and I rather like the angle. Edited October 4, 2019 by KNP 33 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Limpley Stoker Posted October 4, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 4, 2019 That crate has been there so long you might have to weather it a bit, with patches of rot, but the discussion goes on and on. Long may it last - it’s a brilliant cameo. 2 1 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can assure it is 4mm as I can’t afford 7mm.... and to compound the situation I was not happy with certain areas after looking at the pictures they went back to the paint shop for more attention!!!! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KNP Posted October 12, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) I have a budding photographer in tow..... My grandson, Bradley (10), borrowed my iPhone 6s and went up to the layout yesterday afternoon and took some pictures. Nobody helped him other than me switching on all the lights and I left him to his own devices.... this is result He was gone ages, messing about with the phones camera settings, took the hop up stool so he could reach over the layout and was in his element. Now he wants Grandad to build him a small layout so he can take pictures, not operate any trains mind you!!! just take pictures......now where I have I heard that before? Like his mum (daughter) he is getting an eye for taking photos and framing the picture layout in his mind before taking.
