lucky luke at nugget gulch on 30 layout

Recommended Posts

I had an old project 2 years before of a western spaghetti layout that I postponed. Finally, I come back with a similar layout lucky luke on 30 layout based on LUCKY LUCK strip cartoon. The overall dimension is 2m long for 45 cm wide for the boxed layout plus an oval to create a continuous loop.

 

This is the mock-up. I will do a mix between a true  traditional layout and the strip cartoon. It's not so easy because the code and the rules are different.

I have to create the background for each building. The buildings come from Atlas collection and I have more than 50 figurines from the strip cartoon. They are more or less at the scale of 1/48. We'll get all the clichés of the cartoon strip.

I modify a little bit my mock up.  For the hill, it's just in order to have an idea. The first tunnel is for the mine and I reality the track for the mine will be 1 inch lower. I will check the mock up during this week  and if I'm satisfied the next week I will lay the tracks.

I add the figures to capture the mood.  I have all the figures of the cartoon strip with all the western cliche. They are shinny but I will coat them with a mat varnish.

I have nearly finished the building.  

 

I try to balance between what we expect in model railroading and strip cartoon. I'm quite happy with the final result except for the roof of the church, railways station and barn. I don't know if I have to change the color  or the material (replace the wood by corrugated roof or by shingle). If you have any idea, I will be happy to share me your opinion.

Definitely worth trying out. I'd try shingles on the barn and corrugated on the church.

Thank you for the idea. For the roof of the church, railways station, school  and barn, I will do it with Tar-Paper Roof and corrugated roof. For the the corrugated roof, I had to wait the end of the covid to order etched product.

The barn has his roof   with Tar-Paper Roof.  I had to wheater it. For the roof of the church and  railways station I will do it in corrugated steel. 

 

I add barrier and tumbs for the church.
