To add some more "wet" to the water I topped it off with a couple of coats of Future floor wax. While it looks very wet to the eye the camera has a hard time focusing on something that is translucent and this is the best I could get.

OK, Mike... You win! That's the best looking water I've ever seen on a layout... hard to believe it's not the real deal.

Thanks Bob, much appreciated!

Other than adding a few more trees I'm done with the creek area. In the one pic you can see some green painted foam in the upper left corner. It represents about 3 square feet of my 14 square foot layout. All this time and I only have 11 square feet done? I don't know if I will live long enough to get the staging yards built ! Icon_lol

Hi,

that looks realy great - congratulation for the wounderfull scenery.
And I'm sure you'll get the last remaining area also done with a lot of fun and some nice scenery.

Have fun, Gerd

That "switch panel", in the first picture? --- has to feel about as nervous as the "Ark" on day one of the "40 days, and 40 nights". Eek

I do hope you've got it well "water"proofed. 357

You didn't look close enough Pete, it's recessed so it has a "roof" over it's head! Icon_lol

**Sumpter250** · 03-03-2012, 03:27 PM

Yup !!

............until the wind blows in the wrong direction ! Big Grin

That's still some beautifully modeled water !! Thumbsup

"Are you trying fo perfection?"

Thanks for the kind words Matt and yes I'm trying for perfection ( aren't we all? Eek

) even though I know I will never get there but I have to shoot for or at something! Icon_lol

That's the best attitude out there. THe best thing about perfection is that though you can't reach it, you can improve endlessly... Nothing is more boring than an easily realized dream! Long live to model railroading! ;-)
