Just caught up with this superbly modelled scene.

Reminded me of the Liskeard and Caradon, which I walked a few years ago.

I attach this photo by way of inspiration.

Thanks Quintus.

 

That's a great shot, I love the weathering on that building, very inspirational. Who knows, this could end up on a layout near me one day?

It's difficult to tell where the actual board ends and the backscene takes over, that is skill 100%

 

As you said George painting clouds is not as easy as it looks, are your oil colours matt finish? 

 

I think I'll just take up knitting instead

Thanks very much.

Oil paint isn't inherently matt, but you can apply a matt varnish afterwards. I've still got a few colour glazes to apply before that.

Once the clouds are done I'll be adding some distant hills/fields on the extreme left hand side and in the middle as you can see in the reference.

Everyone has beaten me to it. I'm too busy picking my jaw up off the floor. Superb George.

Sometimes it's hard to be objective. Which one works better do you think, A or B?
