Sheldon's Layout

[Grumpy468]

Got this little section done, with a street lite added wired up. I have a large section of track area to deal with? not sure if it will be fence or trees, I may do a split of fence and trees. It's overwhelming to envision at times.

Built some landscape dividers, I have a couple areas I am not sure what to do with.

Lookin' good Sheldon, I like the way you weather 'wood'.  Is that wood or plastic, the grain
looks HO scale.

I'm just about finished with my 'trackside' liquid industry.  Still have to work a bit more elevation
for the 'loading dock'.

Thank you ken, Yes these are wood, laser cut kits. I tried an India ink wash first, then grey dry brushing. after that a black wash, and then powder.

That looks great! I too am a small town prairie boy.

Right on. I was on the road a lot for work, my layout is a representation of a combination of small rural towns here.

Back on the bench. Small areas are so hard to come up with ideas.

Those little buildings look like some of the builddings I've been in before.
Your 'weathering' is excellent !

Thanks for posting.

Pics dont seem to load? try again.

[Grumpy468]

This happened today. Not sure how much more I will add.

[Grumpy468]

The street lites add a nice touch.

[Grumpy468]

More static grass and outhouses.

I put a couple of my main street buildings on to see what else i need to add for landscaping. a bunch of ideas came out.
