RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted January 5, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 5, 2022 I've made a start on the left exit tunnel mouth. The tunnel will be below the town wall, so is cut through the hillside. The footpath around the outside of the walls will use a small bridge to cross the line. Visible behind the wall ( inside the walls) should be a few roof tops. These will extend the scene and hide the point levers. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted January 13, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 13, 2022 Using the very crude photo editing feature on my phone, this is what I'm hoping this area will look like once complete. The green won't be as vivid and the Castle walls will be a muted grey rather than black, but generally this is about right. The footpath at the base of the walls will cross the track via a small wooden bridge, rise up with a few steps, then turn sharp right to skirt round the two-level cafe patio, and use a set of industrial-style steps to drop down towards the Castle main entrance. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
