The potato-sack wall works nicely.  Good scenery overall.  Are the buildings going to go in the open area in the middle?  At first I thought it was supposed to represent a plowed field.

 

Keep us updated as you progress.  Seeing someone else get things done always helps motivate me to go finish one of my many incomplete layout tasks.  :grin

Are the buildings going to go in the open area in the

 

yes when i get there (did not update the pics yet will on my week off, sometimes its nice

to work 12h shifts, but then again 4 days in a row bits sometimes)

 

got a lot more work to do (well semms some things might be bit of scale, not to much do,

still palsible). the reown redish color looks like that with the flash its not that bad looking

its just a base ..... it's not gonna look like that (hope not LOL)

Nice looking layout. I might  borrow the potato sack retaining wall idea.

 

be my guest but first make base background then glue the sack net (last spray the net and

can use the woodland scenics fine tuff )

if i remember corectly the high ground in the back  (i will be able to have 4 / 5 story background

buildings there) 3 sides and the top will have plexi glass... the back has a door for access and power

supply cashe .....  either gonna use kato standard power pak (gutted... will use main power supply

for main power and track power .....) or (tempted to get the wireless tomix one...... ) duno about that

cuz sometimes cant even locate the Wii controlles ( 4 year old and wii controller LOL)

i take some pics in the table (i know pics not gonna be as good as the real thing)
