update

 

It's not much of an update.  I got a portable heater up and running in the layout room so it's warm enough to work again.  I did some more work on the streets in town and a bit of ground cover and static grass around the grain elevator.

 

 

 

 

 



Update

 

My apologies to everywhere for the lack of updates recently.  There is a minor issue with heat in the layout room and it has been far too cold to do any work.  I am hoping to have it sorted out soon so that I can get back to work.  Thanks.

 



town

 

I haven't worked on the layout much as I have been spending most of my spare time on a R/C project.

 

 

 

But I did open up the storage boxes that have all of the town buildings and test fit a few combinations.  I keep putting off cutting the roadway for the crossing because I am afraid of messing up.  I need to just jump in and do it or it will never get done.

 

 

 





More scenery, a siding, and the start of a street

 

Worked on a bit more base scenery and some static grass.

 

 

 

 

One of these days, I will get that ceiling fixed, I swear.  I started laying out the street and sidewalks for the town.  Don't mind the fingerprints, this stuff has been in storage all summer.

 



 

I scenicked the area around a transformer manufacturer and decided to go ahead and ballast the track while I was there.  I buried most of this siding in the dirt and will be making it look very poorly maintained.  The glue is still wet in this picture.  I will get a dry shot soon.

 

 

 

 

Scenery

 

Worked up a bit more scenery today.  Some static grass and a few trees.

 

 

 

 

I also started work on the town area by laying some foam base for the roads and structures.  I have some Walthers street system from the last layout that I will be re-using here.
