    Are there grills behind the cab windows or were they blanked out?

    Nice work to all....Russ I really like the SF depot. I'm very partial to N-scale and the Santa Fe.

    I've been working on the East Harbor--still some pink foam showing where I build up the docks, and no water poured yet. Here's the Pirate at the dock. I'm using buildings to try to cut down the difference between the water and the deck. Still got a little leveling to do.

    I'm adding some buildings to the East Harbor. I'm actually just using up supplies in my spare parts box. I'm having fun building roofs from matte board--lots of horizontal scores, a few vertical ones, and then a little picking with the point of a No. 11 eXacto blade.

    No water yet--just water stains. I'll fix them up. That's the stern of my Benson-class destroyer. Boy, I've progressed a lot since building that!

    Those are just pieces of plain paper. I cut them to length and width then snipped the ends at angle. I then bent the ends down then mounted it in place with white glue. After it's painted it's hard to tell it from thin plastic.
