    Stunning. Everything looks so right.

    Coming together nicely Jerry. You can’t beat a micro to get you to focus on details.
  3. The Bandit
    Nice work Thomas. Really look the part.

    If you are going to paint a backscene perhaps you could use the one you have as a guide. The perspective looks pretty good to me but the backscene may be a bit bright. A hand painted one would certainly be ‘softer’. Tester pots and cheap artists acrylics can give a nice result - it just depends how arty you are.

    Looking forward to seeing your work in The Dispatch. It’s a very inspirational mag and always a good read.
  6. The Bandit
    Simple but effective. I like it!

    I think that type of backscene works really well Jerry. You’ve made a nicely composed scene.
  8. The Bandit
    Yes, the taller one works best.
  9. The Bandit
    Enjoying seeing your build come together.

    Looking forward to seeing your progress Jerry. It was your earlier micros that got me into them and as a result I have produced two in the last two years.

    Don’t spend too much dough.
  12. The Bandit
    I like that idea - something different.
  13. The Bandit
    Lovely job. Well done.
  14. The Bandit
    Astounding modelling! Think I’ll just give up!!

    Having recently built two box file layouts, this definitely looks do-able, especially laid on its side. Transfer sidings at a height - from narrow gauge to standard is what I’m thinking. A project for the winter perhaps, set in winter.

    A great set of pictures. Really enjoyed looking at them.
  17. The Bandit
    I love night time shots. Well done.
  18. The Bandit
    Beautiful modelling and composition. I really enjoy seeing your work.

    I like this micro layout plan especially the use of buildings to act as view blockers/exit points. Will give some thought to an alternative to china clay. Perhaps part of a quarry building might be nice.

    Glad you enjoyed Bleak Moor, Andrew. The Dispatch certainly gets better every issue. Credit to Ian and his hard work. Micros might be seen as a bit of a niche but there is certainly plenty of interest and builders out there. Looking forward to the next issue. Good luck with your own micro.

    Your models and photographs are a pleasure to see. Simply stunning.

    I used a rotating fiddlesticks to avoid handling stock which is weathered and to avoid damage to small parts. On balance a non rotating fiddlestick pushed up to the track with or without metal rail joiners would be easier. Of course, if you don’t use rail joiners then the fiddlestick would need a source of power - mine was plugged into the small bus via male and female connectors. I use DCC.

    Love the whole ‘used/scrap’ idea - well done. I made a rotating fiddlesticks for Bleak Moor which worked quite well but involved swapping wires to avoid polarity issues.
  24. The Bandit
    Astounding. Truely brilliant!
  25. The Bandit
    Beautifully composed. A pleasure to look at and an inspiration.
