Paudie Riordan Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 Hi Phil. Good luck with the Layout. I look forward to seeing it. What software did you use to draw the design. I am in the throws of remodelling and I need to do a trackplan on the computer. cheers Paudie Quote
Aussie Phil Posted April 1, 2014 Author Posted April 1, 2014 Hey mate. Was simply done with paint. Phil Quote
David Holman Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 The paint may be simple, but the application is splendid... Quote
Aussie Phil Posted April 2, 2014 Author Posted April 2, 2014 Few more from the new layout of the hedge which has extended another 2 foot. Also the loco shed has moved and a nissen hut has taken its place. 1 Quote
heirflick Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Phil, was out at the local B na M plant in portlaoise yesterday and thought of your layout.... the locals appear to like a bit of shooting...level crossing signs seem to be a favourite target - try and model this! Quote
Broithe Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Those shots have come from in front and behind the sign - could have been fun if they did it at the same time... Mmmm, you might need to rough your track up a bit for full realism. Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Track work looks very much like my old layout, could have been modelling BnaM and I didn't even know! 1 Quote
DartStation Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 That cow has a very suspicious look about her! PR [ATTACH=CONFIG]12679[/ATTACH] you may weather that cow!! Quote
Aussie Phil Posted April 2, 2014 Author Posted April 2, 2014 That cow has a very suspicious look about her! PR Consider the cow weathered and I do believe she was recently returned from an alien scientific project. Quote
Broithe Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Consider the cow weathered and I do believe she was recently returned from an alien scientific project. And you may get the tags in before you get caught. 1 Quote

Aussie Phil Posted April 2, 2014 Author Posted April 2, 2014 My highlight of the 2012 trip was seeing father teds house... Might have to add it to the layout Quote
Aussie Phil Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 thanks for all the support and good bit of banter. The photos are brilliant and inspiring. This morning have added a few puddles and a point throw. Cheers again for all the input, support and feedback Phil:banana: Quote
BosKonay Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Just stunning! How did you do the puddle? Looks very effective! Quote
Aussie Phil Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 The puddle is wood glue mixed with brown humbrol enamel. Quote
murrayec Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Hi Phil Love the puddle and point throw, as said before these little additions have an amazing affect on the scale also I see the cow has elevated status, very nice murrayec Quote
Aussie Phil Posted April 8, 2014 Author Posted April 8, 2014 Today I started modelling mud... A technique that I need to get down pat as soooooo much of the layout will be covered with it 1 Quote
heirflick Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 good stuff Phil. nothing emphasizes mud like the groves made by load of tractor tyres! Quote
jhb171achill Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 I can almost see that 5c coin I lost in that mud somewhere.... Quote
heirflick Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 mind you dont dig up one of these bog bodies..... Quote
