The thing about the Texans is they can beat anyone in the league. But they all too often find a way to loose to anyone in the league! There is a good chance the Texans will beat the Eagles in a couple weeks, but there is a good chance they will loose too. It would just be a coin toss!  I think it is time for the Texans to get a new coach.
biL: Eagles? Shouldn't you be rooting for the Dolphins? 
Back to work on the bridge today...

Hope y'all don't mind me posting so many photos. I like the way this one is turning out, and kinda want to show it off... :o
I put a coat of varnish over the gel ripples, and finished the old wooden piles and the concrete cut-offs.

The water level on the model is down just a bit due to a spell without rain.

Yup !!! when it comes to "spot on accuracy" of detail, you are "the duty moving target". I'm really not looking forward to the day you run out of bridges to model. Excellent work!, and, "posting so many photos" ? "Mind " ?,
Not Me !!
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!

Everyone notice Gary posted this BEFORE today's game  It's a shame, though, because Houston was my dark horse team to win it all this year

X3829, modelsof1900, Kevin, thanks for the comments and for follwoing along with the thread.
S-two-fiddy, still one bridge to go, plus lots of details and scenery to do on the others. So, got a ways to go on bridges. 
Tetters, the gel I used is this stuff, it has a thick creamy consistency and was easy to work with.
