Sunday Scenic Showcase September 6, 2015

Alan, you have outdone yourself sir!! 

Wow! Beautiful.

So when can we see the ship?

Fantastic Alan, and the lights add just another great touch! Terry

 

Just amazing build.

Wow!  Outstanding job, Alan.  Never get tired of seeing your work.

Another beautiful and amazing structure. Will you have pictures of it in your clients layout?

A few scenes around town I hope you will enjoy...

Frank,

Carpet King is one awesome store. I love it.

 

Alan Graziano

Incredible accomplishment, Alan!!  I'm curious to know how you feel now that this massive undertaking is finally finished...aside from the obvious sense of gratification, of course.

Joe,

I am happy to say I can start other things now like a CNJ switiching tower. I am adding two more pictures. I added a name to the Hulett in memory of my prize hound Rocky who went to greener pastures on Wednesday. He would hang out with me while I was building the Hulett.

 

Alan Graziano

Very sorry to hear about Rocky's passing, Alan.  I know the feeling all too well.  Really nice tribute by putting his name on the unloader.

I have another small area of the layout started.  I still have some more details to add around the building.  This also shows my first attempt at using joint compound to make roads.  I'm pretty happy with the results.

Alan

Congrats on completing a MASSIVE structure!!!

Steve

Moonson, Great, as usual! Your use of figures adds so much life to your layout.

 

Alan, I am blown away with that loader. It is fantastic! Sorry about Rocky, we lost our boy too, sad.

 

Malcolm

 

Hi Malcolm, I much appreciate your saying so. Thank you.

I noticed that when I have offered scenes (I call then "Insta-Ramas") for sale, without figures they were not instant-sellers; with figures placed thoughtfully, which I enjoy, they sold.

 

An empty landscape is one kind of story, isn't it. However, with human figures present, a place becomes a whole other story, one to which we can sometimes relate. To me, the buildings, figures, land, foliage, and vehicles are telling a story, together - in concert, as it were.
