That backdrop is fantastic. the horizon is very well placed for the scene and will blend beautifully with the scenery. I also like how it looks good from a variety of angles- sometimes backdrops become very one dimensional when viewed down the length, but you nailed it! It looks like it was hand brushed- no airbrush involvement?
Back from Missoula, MT after a week there, lots of action there. Montana Rail Link is the best short line Class 2 ever. Lot's of trains and the yardin Missoula is great. Small hobby shop there, decent N scale stuff. Nowback to work and some modeling.
I love Missoula. It's a toss up between it and Whitefish for my fave MT town. The rail action is great as you said. We had a great feed at the Iron Horse brewpub and you've gotta love Big Sky IPA.... if only I had time to visit the taproom!http://www.bigskybrew.com/Our_Beers/Big_Sky_IPA
I dabbled with foam a while back and never developed a taste for it.
Missoula used to be home (and may still be for all I know) to a Stone paper mill that shipped significant amounts of corrugating medium (I seem recall they did linerboard too) by rail. I used to get tonnes each week by rail when I ran a corrugated plant in Richmond, B.C.
