Majestic Mine Portals

Modeling
#1

First of probably 3 portals for the Majestic coal complex. It is based on several photos I’ve seen of concrete portals.

The height of the opening is roughly 6 feet, figuring that it feeds into a 48" or so seam.

Nice start Bob! That’ll add a lot of detail interest to the RR.

Nice.
Could be used for an interesting way to hide a drain.

Second portal waiting paint. You can see that this shaft angles down for a bit of visual variety.
