Bryan thanks again for the suggestion, cut out a 45 degree profile that I'm working with, fill on the right
is way better and working on the left.

Some new action shots (Bill Murray Stripes).









The idea for siding came from Flagstaff, AZ - The BNSF (AT&SF) sidings and spurs near the depot. https://www.google.com/maps/@35.1962809,-111.6455553,3a,23.4y,206.5h,91.67t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sYwaZ40jBI7LsTRVmsWRKQw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?hl=en

Well this worked out a whole lot better, no culvert, no steep sides.

Chuck, since the module is small and mobile, take it out on a sunny day and take some photos under natural sunlight.  I bet we won't be able to tell real or model!!!!!  :)

Really nice job, Chuck - I've enjoyed following along. At the start of this thread you said you had watched a number of scenery videos.  There are quite a few out there - are there some in particular that you liked more than others, or perhaps I should ask if there is a particular person who think shows and explains scenery techniques particularly well?  Thanks!  Bob

Chuck,

That's looking really nice.  I especially like how you have done the siding.

But, can I make one suggestion?  The road crossing at the mainline would cause many vehicles to high-center.  Can you consider raising the portion of the road between the mainline and the layout's edge.  If you were to level that section, that would reduce the severe angles.

Keep up the good work!

Hope this helps,
DFF

That's going to be loads better, Chuck.  Thanks for not being offended and accepting some constructive criticism.  Better modeling through peer pressure, right?  Like I wrote earlier, keep up the good work!

You also can't tell what is Martin Wellberg and is a fur mat. Check out the coconut mat undergrowth. Hard to do this
for N scale. But this rocks.
