I can see the forest through the trees



I finished up the forested area by Drye's Curve. The last batch of trees are smaller because they line the edge of the woods.  I also added more static grass and ground texture.


After a quick clean of the tracks, I ran a test train through the scene. This scene is difficult to photograph as the edge of the aisle is close to the tracks.

  1. The speed that the this scene went from inception, to benchwork to trackwork to a pretty much finished piece of layout is impressive. Keep up this rate and the whole extension should be running by labor day!

  2. This was the easy part- just a single track through the countryside. The next phase is considerably more involved.

  4. The trees beg the question "are they real"
    Ans.- No a three dimensional masterpiece.
