Looking good.

Nice progress on the scenery.

Stay cool and run steam......

 

Thanks Guys!

I am hoping to keep it moving along...

Keith

 

Its moving a lot quicker than mine

 

Wow nice progress.

That's a very photogenic curve for your train shots.

 

Matthew, I started last fall.

Geeky, Thanks, I need to add some hillside
and a tunnel at the back of that curve still.

Keith

 

Thanks BoxcabE50,

It is the beginnings of the Medusa Cement.
I thought the ADM Grain Elevator was too big.

I finally got some pollyscale concrete paint.
It's time to get the airbrush out.

Keith

 

Nice work! I love seeing SP trains in action!

 

Thanks Espeeman.

Here are some more pics......

Nice work Keith... I like the landscaping so far.

Stay cool and run steam.....

 

Thanks Bob.

I started some patch work.





Keith

 

Very nice work so far.

That truck by the silos, what make is it?

Verse,

I found it in a consignment bin for a buck or two.

Sorry, I don't recall the brand.

On the bottom it says made in china.

I tried building up the hillside a little more.
I am not sure how much to build it up and
how much to paint on the backdrop.
Any comments or suggestions?





Thanks,
Keith

 

That hill looks about right to me, it dont want to go to high up on the backdrop.

Thats one thing I struggle with (and what I need to sort out soon!) Not sure how to do it in a built up area....

 

Keith:

That looks about right to me. You did a nice job on the cut to the tunnel.


Stay cool and run steam.......

 

Thanks guys.

I will apply a smoothing coat to the ground around the tunnel
but I am still looking for some rock castings that I put in a box.

Here is the stained and painted tunnel portal.
