Lit back up again. Just a few 5000k LED bulbs in for now. This is as is has sat complete with dust and all. 



Train is moving in the pic (after cleaning the track) Will do some more dust clean up.

Yep it is based off some of the Walther's Vulcan truss parts and styrene. DKS did the same on his industrial layout, I just copied his idea.

Looks amazing. I wish I have my layout in the house here. Should be another 3 years before I do any modeling of any type trains or planes.

Look. He made some trees

[Chris333]

Don't even care if they look that great, this is already more trees than I've made my whole life! 





Many more to go. Only have like 10 pair of tweezers, so can only make that many at a time. Plus ran out of spray paint.

They're a little short for my tastes (but just a touch), but otherwise, I think they look good.

Are you talking trees or Stormtroopers?

I really like how these hide the curve going around the backdrop and blend each side together.

What's with the chimney bricks at the bottom?  They go all wonky!

That is freaky.  I thought it was an optical illusion at first, now I think the mason was drunk or half the chimney was built on quicksand, or both.
