RMweb Premium John Besley Posted January 22 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 22 That really does capture the overgrown feel of that part, don't forget the triangle in the road junction was always a bit scruffy Will you have room for a half relief 'Red Cow' pub? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bootneckbob Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 The triangle is there but tiny. That road layout being so compressed was a nightmare to do. The Red Cow is actually already there and has been for a very long time. I should really print it out again and mount it properly but that was just printed on A4 ages ago just to see how it might look for the forced perspective. I usually take pictures that don't show it because it's one of those bits that looks odd when you look at it. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bootneckbob Posted January 30 Author Share Posted January 30 (edited) It turns out that I made this with acetate, paper, card and foamex. As usual, not the finished article but enough for now. Need to look at the large building behind now really. Edited January 30 by bootneckbob 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bootneckbob Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 Been off the layout for quite a while but wanted to get some more scenery done on the incline. First bit of static grass on today. Also learnt something new today; I always thought the grass applicator was a bit rubbish and its a really expensive one. Anyway, saw something today on youtube which mentioned having new batteries in it as they need the power and use a lot of it. That got me thinking about using a 15V battery pack with the same connector as the 9V battery. Result was excellent static grass laid down, or standing up to be more precise! Lineside view ....and from above Much more work to do and time to reorder more materials. 11 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
