Josh, if you don't find a different location for it to get a better background, you could always make a back drop to hide the out of scale garden plants and fence behind everything.

Thanks Wayne, this was a very fun build, and i would like to do another similar to it with all the construction scenes, but, i think i will wait till i start some of the mainline modules for the M&ET to do some more construction scenes ![]()

Russ, thanks for the tips, ive been thinking about getting a few different backdrops that would not necessary would have to stay permanent and i could switch them around and change them up on the different modules..... My only obstacle is price ![]()

Josh, havig a few different backdrops is a very good idea, though I envy you for the palms trees in yout backyard. I love palms and the warm weather that comes with them (hmm...or was it the other way round

Thats a great idea building a photo diaramma, I think I may do something like that in the roaring 20's, I wonder if the wife would mind me displaying something like that in the living room.

Josh - you build beautiful modules which is not just all track - but which has set aside enough room for trucks and roads as well. You almost make me want to remove some tracks to be able to fit in more roads

Josh:
Lookin' terrific, as usual. I like the detail you put into your scenes, especially the heavy equipment. BUT...where is your asphalt laying machine?? And the steel drum roller to pack it down?? ![]() ![]()
I only know what I know, and I don't understand very much of it, either.

Ive been looking at a couple Kibri Models but havnt bought them yet. i REALLY want to get a brass one by Classic Construction, but there WAY to expensive for me right now ![]() ![]() I also need to order some Road Pavers and a Cold Planner or 2 as well, when i get a new job, those will be among the things i will have to get as they are a MUST have in the construction business ![]()
