David Todd Posted September 5, 2013 Author Share Posted September 5, 2013 While DP. platform 1., is on the (occasional). dining table, I decided, to give the trusses and upright's a lighter shade of blue,instead of dark grey. Later,in a few day's. the platform fronts,will be lightened,from a dark brown.

Jaz Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Ah now that's better, you are getting to the juicy pictures. Quality even if not quantity, love the pictures. can you get a through the (looking glass) tunnel view? Plus I think a very light touch of black weathering for shadow in the bushes will help give it a bit of oomph for the photographs. Lovely work. Have you ever notice greenery always has blackery..........for the deeper shadowed parts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
