. . . why stay horizontal ? . . .
'cause my stainzes are no mountain goats…
Korm, just because you have vertical scenery, it doesn’t mean the track can’t be level.
some gaps left…
so i did close it.
paint it.
put some bushes.
made a little platform, and gave it a roadbed.
well, just the roadbed for the lower track, and another five foot (about 3%) are complete…
Looking great!
I wonder if my wife would let me knock down all my interior walls in the house and build an indoor layout. We could incorporate a bed and a kitchen so the house is function still.
Korm you do such great work and being indoor really allows you to do things that outdoors just cant.
What is the little building in the first arch?
No. No, she won’t.(http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-embarassed.gif)
thanks.
devon,
bigger chance, to play the lottery and build an addition to the house.
the little building? - good question.
i don’t know.
it got build as part of a station, that i was going to make on the spot, where now the mountain is.
maybe, it is the now unused explosives shed from the tunneling?
(truth is, i would hate to rip it out. making a new inner arch on site would be a pain somewhere, and i got already enough arches there, that cry out for landscaping)
Don’t rip it out. It looks great. I like the little bench. I like the unused explosives bunker idea that works.

well, said my wife: “you are crazy! nobody ever will notice that!”
said I: “i will.”
that conversation was about the first part of the telegraf line…
(and, yes, that are q-tips there in the line. i slung the thread twice around a q-tip between posts, and drew the thread tight, when the glue is dry, i cut them out and the thread will hang in a nice natural bowline)
Korm,
I like your ranch items. Stun gun, pistol grip sawed off shotgun. But your missing brass knuckles and a switch blade.
i just realized, that i didn’t make any good pics about the underlying structure of my mountains.
so, here we go.
just some strips of wood (rests, the local carpenter saves for me) some chickenwire and my trusted old (from the '60ies) single action tacker.
tackering the wire to the wood, then pushing, bending and drawing the wiremesh, until it makes a believable rocky surface.
nicely done Korm.(http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)
Korm
I don’t recall you posting anything on the arched window structure in the background that appears to be made from pink insulation foam?
I also see what appears to be a level on your tripod…(http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)
thanks Ron.
Rooster, right. i diddn’t post anything about it.
it is a donation from our local colledge. a modell of our former parliament.
when they cleaned out storage space, the schooldirector asked me, if i would be interested in some buildings from former schoolprojects. next to the pink building (painted, made of white styrofoam)on the right is a beige one. thats the national kathedral.
you know, there are offers, one can’t decline… ;-))
they are just placeholders. at a later moment in time they will be converted to some buildings for my future mexican harbour town.
the tripod came with a laser level. - i most often use it for my camera, when i make pics without flash. (that thing is less shaky than i am.)
well, covered with household paper an a mix from water and white glue:
I like the way it’s going. Good work! (http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-laughing.gif)
Ha Ha I thought you were making a chicken coop for Rooster!

You need to work it into the layout Korm!
Keep up the good work!
thanks, Joe.
rooster, i might. have not yet thought abot it.
Sean, don’t need a coop. my wife has a nice little collection of BBQ grills for trespassing roosters.
with the basecolour:
before i can go on, i’ll have to landscape the track in the background and below the trestle.
so, out came that twelve foot long beast:
