Bridge at Mason Park

[faraway]

You did discuss how and if to paint a shadow. On the photos the natural shadow looks good. No reason to paint one.

Even though the bridge is casting a decent shadow, I think it would be wise for us modelers to pay more attention to that stuff. As Galen had mentioned earlier, it makes sense to help the shadows on our layout be more distinct by the coloring and shading we use in those areas.

That is right and I have not been sure if you "painted" a shadow or if it is a "natural" shadow. Now in your case is the light source at the right spot to make a clear defined shadow where it should be. If you would have a more diffuse light not producing a nice shadow I would ask you to "paint" a shadow like it is now seen on the photo.
