    This is looking good Ian
    You will have to give us a close up of the water tank not clear enough to see what's inside from this angles?

    Excellent work Ian. Could I suggest that you paint the edge of the drop down flap the same colours as the scenery around it.

    For example, from this...

    to this...

    Cheers, Gary.

    a. weather the rails in rust colour .. but because this plonk is about pla .. running more than anything else am not doing the sleepers ... yet.

    c. glue underlay to board
    d. sort point control

    Looks really good Ian, I especially like the two levels as it helps to build up a lot of detail in such a small space, looking forward to the lower level work being added.

    The weathers turned here as well - as Toto found out the snow's here and the sun's shinning, must be summer
