The black wash made a huge difference.  Now your rockwork is much more visible.  Very nicely done!

Looks pretty realistic to me, very nice sir. Sounds like it was good practice for your permanent layout, very cool

In your fourth picture, it looks like you have a terrible kink in the siding track just after the turnout.  Hopefully it's not quite as bad in person or from a different view?  Scenery looks fantastic!

My only concern was for operations, especially on a show layout bullet-proof trackwork is important!   :scared:

Hello all...
back from a whirlwind, but very nice, trip to Texas.
The set-up and show were very nice-great seeing old friends and meeting new ones (We'll make a trip back soon!)


Here are picks of "Arbonado" in the setup (main buses with the powerpole connectors were added the evening before the setup, and once the tracks was given another good cleaning, it performed wonderfully!)















Thanks for looking!
