Thank you, Pat and Bob!! I am thinking you are both right. If it was someone else's layout, I would say it looks good on the layout. However, I agree the scale bothers me as much as it not blending in well with the rest of the backdrop.
Bob, no stickball here. I have always felt sorry for kids I saw in movies playing stickball in the street. Where I come from, there was no one else to play ball with except my brother. We had one regular bat and ball. We played catch or hit fly balls to each other. As we got older and stronger, we moved from the front yard, to the bottom of our steep hill, to the neighbor's pasture. Yes, the pasture had land mines to dodge!
