 :trollface: if you like the closeness of the fascia and the shadow it casts . . .  :trollface:

It does look like you got to a decent solution.

A string of LEDs behind the fascia will take care of the shadow, and painting the fascia a neutral color should help also.
Nice progress, although I'm not clear on how you overcame the grade bust...

I admire you for taking this on. Seems it would be easier to start from scratch but this does look like the former owner did a good job. Any photos of it from before it was taken apart?

   The last photo I posted was from the  pre-move of the layout when it was together.  I am trying to find more photos of the pre-move.  It looked pretty good together like that.   Im still debating on making layout bigger with not too much change.

Just glue lots of fluffed-out cotton on to cover the fascia -- then you've got clouds for the bottom level (explains the shadows) and heavy ground fog for the upper!! :trollface: :facepalm:
