Jerry1975 Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 Hi Everyone. I have been ill with the flu so not done much on this lately, I did however manage to finish the ballasting off last night. It's basically finished now, I may add a odd thing here and there ( like a sign ). I will post a photo later. Jerry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefromacrossthepond Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I especially like the way the backdrop (backscene) works on this and adds to the overall atmosphere. So often a photographic backdrop "clashes" with the modeled section in front because of the difference in level of detail. Jerry, you, to use a phrase, nailed it. (You should change the name to "Lookslyka Yard.") Great job! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry1975 Posted December 5, 2017 Author Share Posted December 5, 2017 Hi Dave. Thanks for your very kind reply, I like the lookslyka yard name too. The backscene came free with a copy of BRM magazine and I cut it to fit and stuck it on. Jerry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davefromacrossthepond Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 (edited) The backscene came free with a copy of BRM magazine and I cut it to fit and stuck it on. But you're the one that used it effectively. Go ahead and take the bow!

Jerry1975 Posted December 6, 2017 Author Share Posted December 6, 2017 Hi Dave. Thanks very much for your kind words, I have given myself a pat on the back. Jerry. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickBrad Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 That looks great, I haven't really progressed with my plans yet and I have bases for 3 of these. I also made the promise of taking at least one to Doncaster in February to be photographed by the BRM team. I need to get started! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry1975 Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 Thanks NickBrad. I'm quite pleased with it, I may add one or two little more things but it's essentially finished. Good luck with your entries, I look forward to seeing them. Jerry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry1975 Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 Hi Everyone. Due to illness this will be my one and only entry, illness has taken over most of my modelling hence lack of updates and other layouts put on hold / shelved. I will post photos of it's completed state soon. Thanks to everyone who has commented, liked, supported me etc. Jerry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ShildonShunter Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Hi Jerry this is a great looking CBC and one you should be proud of. Your health comes first mate hope you are feeling well soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_J Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Hi Jerry I think with your health issues, you're right to put your energies to finishing off your current projects. You have invested a lot of time and effort so far on HardliaYard and your current entry in the boxfiles and dioramas thread, it would be nice to see them finished. But only when you feel up to it. It is surprising what you can get done with a half-hour here and there. You can always leave starting a new project until you're feeling up to it. I for one, always enjoy your little model essays, and look forward to your updates. But your health must always come first. Here's hoping that you feel better soon.
