    Where any/all structures aren’t fixed to the surface properly, the gaps show and doesn’t blend with the rest of this beautiful layout.

      G`day Jim, Well yes, but that`s the price you pay for removable buildings.? This layout may have to be abandoned in the near future, but I will take most of my buildings and fixtures with me to start afresh.....that`s the logic behind it. All the best Gormo

    • @greatchesterfordjunction
      @greatchesterfordjunction 7 днів тому

      G`day, The low relief is just an image I down loaded off the net some years ago. It is simply just printed to the correct scale and then cut out and then glued to the background. I think if you check out Scale model scenery....it may be on their site..?? Found this on ebay www.ebay.com.au/itm/291520443153 Cheers Gormo

    ¡Hola buenas tardes Gormo! Some great additions to Bamford and, love the use of the tunnel portal overlay. Seeing the driver’s eye view was great (what make and variant of camera have you used?). Sadly, my recently acquired action cam is too high/wide to achieve any meaningful footage around the layout. Looking forward to further updates. As ever, stay safe and well. Un saludo. Gary

      G`day Gary, Thanks for your comments. The camera is an el cheapo off ebay. It`s a TOPO Sport DV.....it does 720 and 1080p. I had to shave part of the retaining clip off to get it to clear on my railway. All the best Gormo

    Dear Gormo, love the additions to the Bamford scenes! Absolutely stunning how the three terraced houses add to the atmosphere and depth of the scene. Marvelous how you added the water tower and its retaining walls, awesome how the wall goes further as a scenic divider for the cattle pen. The scenic value of the gate, the repurposed goods van and the access path to the water tower make a small scene pop. Love the effect of the footpath next to the repurposed goods van going down just slightly in front of the backdrop. That little is just enough to create that illusion of a world behind the adjacent walls. I’m almost done with the superlatives, but for a wow on the photo printed tunnel portal. Very interesting how its location is suited for this kind of experiment. Cool to see how you added some more layers of backdrop trees, which really extends the vista towards the tunnel portal. Will look smashing when this area is further populated with some 3d trees, brush and other scenic elements. Love the vid. Looking forward to seeing your next episodes. Cheerio

    Again some nice improvements, perhaps an ideas, at the tunnel entering you put a cut out bush in front of the tunnel face, some bushes (Islandic moss) in front of that photo would give it some more depth. And what disturbed me a bit is the gap between the mountain and the track base, is that something you still need to work on? But over all lovely layout…
