Yesterday evening I experimented with making the arches all identical rather than 2 sizes (with the exception of that one single one over track coming thru the back wall).

I think it looks presentable, but I do have a question about the very lower portion where the footings are getting to be quite a bit 'wider' compared to the others ?.....opinions??

BTW, in constructing this mock-up I had to place each 6" wide arch drawing at different heights to the adjacency ones,...and even more exaggerated so in this particular higher grade slope (about 4%). I imagine this means I would have to do the same offset of each 6" piece whether I was constructing this 'wall of arches' with a casting method, or a decorative flexible facing material ??
