David R Lentz, USA (updated, edited) A rather better job of it than I initially would have expected, I must admit! To my mind, these smaller dioramas generally feel too cramped and sparse, though this modest-sized tableau would stand out amongst one encompassing an entire layout. Congratulations!

@dadikkedude Ай бұрын

I feel like most realistic modelers I see they don't paint alot on the scenery, it doesn't need it just keeping it simple.

@jackreed3445 Ай бұрын

I liked your "home made" tree trunks better than the commercial ones. The whole thing looks quite reqlistic. I also like the sound you ginned up as it sounded quite like something heard around locos worldwide. Take care and remember to try and have a little fun every day. jack, in The Valley of The Sun, Arizona, USA

2 things let this down! Fisherman's rod needed some line, adding, and the train needed weathering as it looked a little too clean, even for something that could possibly be new.

@kiko_meeko Ай бұрын

Fishing line is pretty hard to see even at full scale, and the loco wasn't his to weather. I think it looks great!

Thank you! I'm sure it could be done using PVA as long as you used one that dries with a glossy finish 👍
