Lol we do have a corgi on the layout...

I refer to...evidence article....... post 7......

med_gallery_17883_2793_1522307.jpg

also 6th picture of post 10

also several pictures of post 44

um post 136...there is two! Now your honour....I have no idea how that second corgi arrived. And no there was no rump steak, raw or otherwise, involved....promise ;) cross fingers.......hope to di....eeeeeeek what am I saying!!!!!!!!!!

 

Actually,I forgot I had started to write it and missed it when I pressed post

I considered deleting it to make you look silly ;p but as everyone will know I edited it........

I meant to refer to the collection of Corgi helicopters.......honest.

My family once owned the grandson of a corgi who won at crafts, so perhaps my corgi was better bred than hers (is that blasphemy???)

And just so the police know in advance, if there is a Royal corgi missing, I only have two Dobermans nowadays,

Lol, excuses accepted!

 

Too be serious for a minute (if I can manage it), I've found the set of Airfix WWII Luftwaffe Personnel to be quite useful for railway related stuff, quite a few figures with spanners, oilcans and so on who once painted up as workmen would go well in a Motive Power Depot.

Thanks 7APT7

 

;p, you'll be pleased to know there is serious plans afoot to increase the layout as we just don't have enough space for everything we want to do  :locomotive:

However, finishing the remaining areas is still the priority

I had a dream we did an interior design of a sleeping coach.. full size,!!! like the ones at Goathland, that is definitely a pipe dream... :swoon:

Hi Jaz

 

How many pairs of shoes or bag... :locomotive: to make room for the extra... :protest: No fighting with Kal as to who as to sacrifice the most... :nono:

 

and... Ye... a coach would be great as a layout room... :O  or does it mean one of you as to go... :triniti:

 

Look forward to seeing the new plans....

In one of the American mags I read of someone who used a steel caboose as a layout room. Cool or what!

 

Jaz, Kal, I admire your work greatly, even though - heck, because - it is at the opposite extreme to my own. Saying that, funds permitting (it is an issue with Care Givers as we are called in the States, you don't lose one salary but two) I've a fancy for a fantasy section of some sort, perhaps in the Smallbrook Studio vein - (Time, time Time!) LOL! I must lighten up, though.

Your layout is like my collection of yellow stock - it just keeps growing............

Kalborough, an update,  these are a bit of an expose, tracks not coloured, no power boxes to the track, ballast looking very thin

the trunk on the fir tree is shockingly thin, theres only turf no static grass, the light is so harsh there is almost a heat haze,

no signals, track gleaming, I did photoshop the closest point.

and I didn't here, the ballast is so thin it looks as though there is standing water, light leaking from the velux above, building almost floating when a little photoshopping .....

all the same you can see we are considering our options, a cement works is a possibility, but we'll need to add a lot of dirty white.

Hi Jaz

 

Great work and photos, it looks fine to me... It made me laugh when I stared to read under each photo and is that a year or a photo ID file name... lol

 

When I first started reading it sounded like some kind of Richard Attenborough on a 10 year return back to your layout, and how global warming as done so much damage in the last 10 years... LMAO...

 

Great work Jaz & Kal

 

Jamie

<p>Thank you <img class="bbc_emoticon" src="http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/public/style_emoticons/default/wink3.gif" title=";)" />, I just thought well those are glaring so I'll list them and save time ;p,</p>

<p>It leaves people the chance to offer critique on the things I have [edit= oops I meant <u>not ]</u>noticed.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>7APT7</p>

<p>Some of my flickr pictures have a habit of trotting off into the ether, and it is hard to work which ones they are, but I have gone back to using the original no reference on my pc so I can work out which buxxer has waltzed off.</p>

An attempt at weathering one of the resin buildings

resin buildings as from the box

left hand building has

DCCconcepts weathering - pure ultrafine black powder on the bricks

Citadel matt black for the broken window

 

med_gallery_17883_2760_783394.jpg

side by side for comparison

 

med_gallery_17883_2760_451380.jpg

modelmates mud brown and oil brown used to show dirt / light on some of the windows

Humbrol rust wash AV0210 and gloss oil stain wash AV0209 touched on the frame for a little definition, see the bottom of the middle window

 

There was another picture it won't load, I will try again tomorrow. N.B. It's borrowing the Art Deco Signal Box space for photographic purposes, as it's final home is yet to be decided.

Hej Hej, welcome Silky_Jack, as you see another friend is here  :sungum:

Jukebox has his Stockrington link on his signature obviously, so there's two places you know to come and chat, between us we can still manage a good old bunfight. :triniti:  :jester:

If you do decide to add a My Layout thread...hint....hint....we'll be there in a flash. No pressure, just seeing you to chat is great. Another Goathland addict  :sungum:

 

We have some nice new friends, as well. People have been really friendly here. Besides the My Layouts consider checking out 'Anything you can do, I can do better, Robinson and Downes'....a truly inspiration thread, I do post there, a bit, not that I am a chatterbox..........much :yahoo:  I follow a bundle of my layouts. here.
