Thank you, Jeff, Dave, Bill, George, Bob!
Jeff, yes velum of the right color would work. Since I ordered the Tamiya, I will go with that.
Dave, yes the surrounding scene. I have a general idea of leaving the street curved with side streets radiating off similarly to what is crudely roughed out. I have decided on one thing, and that is that the auto dealership is out. The building even kit bashed and a small lot for cars would take too much room away from the small town. I will certainly keep everyone posted.
Bill, I am pleased with how the windows turned out. Best of all, they were made at no expense, just paper and some thin styrene I have had for 30+ years.
George, tell your friend that I was only authorized to terrorize the electric grid in Virginia and West Virginia. That authorization was terminated in 1995 when I was terminated and returned to Pennsylvania to then terrorize the telephone company system.
Bob, I was thinking the same thing about someone working all day to make these Evan Designs units. The issue isn't magnification, it is that the wires are so thin I can't even feel them, much less make them go where I want. They do give excellent results, though. I will be buying more of them in the future.
