Psiborg Posted November 1, 2017 Author Share Posted November 1, 2017 Oops! But I like it. ;-) Paul. I was hoping nobody spotted that In my defence, I was standing at the other end of the layout trying a new move before the public came in!

Psiborg Posted November 7, 2017 Author Share Posted November 7, 2017 (edited) Very nice Rhtt set you have here!! cheers neil. Thanks Neil It's scratchbuilt from plastic sheet on a pair of Bachmann Intermodal wagons. It isn't 100% accurate, but it's better than not having one! The tank barrels are household waste pipe! Signs were made on my PC and printed out The whole thing was then weathered last picture courtesy of Andy York/BRM I am building a new version, it is a bit more accurate and features more detail. I have purchased transfers from Railtec for the new one! Simon Edited November 7, 2017 by Psiborg 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psiborg Posted November 30, 2017 Author Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) MORE NEW FIGURES At the Wakefield Show I was talking to Pete Goss ("The Worlds End" and "Rolands Castle") about his figures and he said he could paint a set of 5 kids wearing modern clothing up for me - they arrived today! The mobile phone picture doesn't do the painting justice Cheers Simon Edited November 30, 2017 by Psiborg 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moggs Eye Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Hi, First time I've seen this layout, it's very impressive and captures the look of the line very well. Having been impressed by the goods shed use at Mansfield Woodhouse myself, I used a similar arrangement for Cottleston and never get tired of seeing a 153 under it. I think I'll have to come over to Mansfield next spring to have a look at the layout. Cheers, Ben. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Ben I'm looking forward to the Mansfield Show myself - it will be the fourth exhibition appearance by Annesley Woodhouse and I'm hoping to add a few new details to it (if I can find some motivation!) Cheers Simon 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psiborg Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 I'm taking Annesley Woodhouse to Shaun's tonight to start the work mentioned above in readiness for the Mansfield Show. Hopefully progress can be made and pictures will follow! Cheers Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psiborg Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) IMPROVED TREE LINE A while ago i mentioned that I wasn't happy with the tree line. Seeing the blue backscene behind the tree trunks wasn't creating any depth. So earlier Shaun glued some hanging basket filling to the top of the bank behind the trees and then, using cheap hairspray, added scatter. The result is a far better and more natural look.

Psiborg Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) I glued the figures from Pete Goss (mentioned in post #57) in place while Shaun was sorting out the greenery.

Psiborg Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 Hi Simon, Sorry for the rash of likes, but I've just caught up with this and it's lovely, we done, and super Videos as well. Cheers for the comments Andy. I was happy to read that you had been in TOPS for a bit and are not overdoing it! Most of the videos are by Shaun, taken on his compact camera and are better than I can do with what I have! Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psiborg Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) MORE PROGRESS I'll start off with a better picture of the figures I fitted last week. I've added more litter to the layout (it looked too clean!) particularly around the buffer stop at the end of the bay Thanks to Shaun for the pictures and for painting the rails around the buffer stops that I missed were WAY too clean!
